The Quest for Identity
Lisa Jardine, Susan Greenfield
The nature of individual identity was dissected by two of Britain’s most outstanding intellectuals, renowned for their prominence inmany disciplines and their ability to make complicated issues understandable. They discussed human nature, our past, what makes us individual, the connection between the brain and the mind and what a society of fulfilled individuals would actually mean.
