Persons, Animals, Ourselves

Auteur: Snowdon, Paul F. (University College London)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
What kind of thing are we? Paul Snowdon's answer is that we are animals, of a sort. This view-'animalism'-may seem obvious but on the whole philosophers have rejected it. Snowdon argues that animalism is a defensible way of thinking about ourselves. Its rejection rests on the tendency when doing philosophy to mistake fantasy for reality.
