Summary: A truly special book
Comment: I can honestly say that this book has changed my view of myself and the world we live in. Anderson starts off with a great review of the history of "self", the tools we use to construct our definition of self, and then moves on to clearly explain the modern and post-modern ideas of self. For me, the insight provided by this book was a bit of an enlightening experience. At first, as I started to apply these ideas to my own self, I found the myself slightly disoriented. But as I emerge on the other side of my internal monologue I find I feel I have a new level of understanding about who I think I am. There are very few books that I have read that I feel have had the kind of personal impact this book has had on me. Part of me wishes it could be required reading, as a natural consequence of understanding these ideas is a tolerance of the vast variety's of different ways we can define ourselves. Read this with an open mind and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. I highly recommend it.
