This books is a stimulating analysis combining cutting edge research and the thinking of modern and ancient philosophers on the elusive topic of "self". Where resides the self? and a host of other questions have baffled man over the past millennia.The writer is realistic enough not to even suggest the possibility of solving all the mysteries. But he has done a very good job of identifying the components of the jig saw puzzle.
A part of the big picture emerges and the reader reaches a radically new and higher level of comprehension toward the end of the book.
The written style is unique and seems like "here are the facts; you take it on from there”.
