Description

The pioneering work of Derek Parfit revealed how our attitudes to the long-term effects of our actions are crucially bound up with our ideas of personal identity. This new collection of essays contrasts eastern and western philosophies of concern for the future, and offers some suggestions for their possible reconciliation. Includes contributions by Yoon-Jae Chung, John Dunn, Takatoshi Imada, Masaya Kobayashi, John O'Neill, Onora O'Neill, Edward Page and Takesha Sasaki
