The standard interpretation is that he holds a no-self view: we are just bundles of conscious experiences, thoughts and emotions. There is nothing deeper to us, no core, no essence, no soul. In the Appendix to A Treatise of Human Nature, though, Hume admits to being dissatisfied with such an account and Part One of this book explores why this might be so. Part Two turns to Books 2 and 3 of the Treatise, where Hume moves away from the ?fiction? of a simple self, to the complex idea we have of our flesh and blood selves, those with emotional lives, practical goals, and social relations with others. In Part Three connections are traced between Hume and Madhyamaka Buddhism, Husserl and the phenomenological tradition, and contemporary cognitive science. Dan O?Brien is Reader in Philosophy at Oxford Brookes University, UK, and founder and organizer of the Oxford Hume Forum. He has published on Hume, philosophy of mind, epistemology, teleology, gardening, Caravaggio and cubism; his books have been translated into Korean, Portuguese and Arabic (forthcoming). 410 0$aPhilosophers in Depth,$x2947-5538 606 $aPhilosophy of mind 606 $aPhilosophy$xHistory 606 $aPhilosophy of Mind 606 $aHistory of Philosophy 615 0$aPhilosophy of mind. 615 0$aPhilosophy$xHistory. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Mind. 615 24$aHistory of Philosophy. 676 $a126 702 $aO'Brien$b Dan$f1968-, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910590079203321 996 $aHume on the self and personal identity$93006086 997 $aUNINA
