  1. 1. The Inescapable Self

    Cover of 'The Inescapable Self' by Timothy Chappell

    This philosophical work delves into the concept of selfhood, exploring the idea that despite the myriad ways individuals may change and evolve over time, there remains an inescapable core to one's identity. The author navigates through various philosophical traditions and thinkers to examine how the self is perceived, constructed, and understood in different contexts. By addressing questions of morality, autonomy, and the nature of personal change, the book offers a comprehensive analysis of what it means to be a self, arguing that there is an essential aspect of individual identity that persists through life's transformations. This exploration not only sheds light on the philosophical underpinnings of selfhood but also encourages readers to reflect on the nature of their own identity.
