It investigates whether an enduring Self exists beneath the fluctuations of bodily life, memory, thought, will and our relations with others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book challenges both simplistic definitions of identity and philosophical accounts that deny the continuity of the Self. The Self is presented as a unified yet changing subject that persists throughout its transformations without remaining identical in every respect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt the Heart of the Book: Self-Poiesis\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelf-knowledge is not treated as a final description of a fixed object. It is a philosophical process through which the Self recognises, examines and participates in its own formation. Dr Ioannis S. Christodoulou names this process \u003cem\u003eSelf-Poiesis\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough sustained engagement with Aristotle, Nietzsche, Bacon, Feuerbach, Freud, Adler and Spinoza, the book brings philosophical and psychoanalytic perspectives into dialogue with an original Philosophy of the Self.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePhilosophical Self-Knowledge\u003c\/em\u003e is not a conventional self-help book. It is a rigorous invitation to transform reading into an act of philosophical self-awareness, self-examination and potentially self-creation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dr Ioannis S.
