Bøker av Jonardon (Professor of Philosophy Ganeri

Jonardon Ganeri presents a radically reoriented account of mind, to which attention is the key. It is attention, not self, that explains the experiential and normative situatedness of humans in the world. Ganeri draws together three disciplines: analytic philosophy and phenomenology, cognitive science and psychology, and Buddhist thought.

Presents a variety of perspectives on the nature of the self as seen by major schools of classical Indian philosophy. This work discusses the "Upanisads", the Buddha's discourses, the epic "Mahabharata"; and shows that many Western theories of selfhood are developed to high degree of sophistication in these writings.
