Synopsis:
Mind and consciousness may split and divide to the extent that there are two minds in one body. Evidence for this comes from commissurotomy or split-brain patients, multiple personality disorder, as well as self-deception. This book investigates these phenomona, and considers the theories of classical philosophers, such as Hume and Kant, in the light of current philosophical thinking. In developing criteria for the unity of the mind, and explaining synchronic personal identity, Brooks puts forward a distinctive philosophy of mind.
