Indeterminate Identity: Metaphysics and Semantics
Parsons, Terence (Professor of Philosophy and Linguistics, Professor of Philosophy and Linguistics, University of California, Los Angeles)
Terence Parsons presents a lively and original study of philosophical questions about identity, such as: Is a person identical with that person's body? Puzzles of this kind have not been solved; Parsons argues, controversially, that this is because there is genuine indeterminacy of identity in the world, rather than in the language used to formulate the questions.
