What Does it Mean to Be You? Are you the same person you were fifteen, ten, or even five years ago? What about fifteen, ten, or five minutes ago? What is the real you, and what makes you an individual? Who are you, really? Author Julian Baggini attempts to answer these questions and more throughout The Ego Trick as he takes you on a journey through the history of philosophy, anthropology, sociology, psychology, and neurology. Through real-life cases of lost memory, personality disorders, and more, Baggini aims to answer the questions that have been plaguing philosophers and scientists for centuries. Of course, there is always more to learn, and no one person can answer them all! As you read, you’ll learn whether or not free will exists, how a person might have eleven personalities, and why the existence of a soul is a common belief.
