J. T. Ismael's monograph is an formidable contribution to metaphysics and the philosophy of language and brain. She tackles a philosophical query whose beginning is going again to Descartes: What am I? The self isn't a trifling factor between things--but if that is so, what's it, and what's its courting to the realm? Ismael is an unique and inventive philosopher who attempts to appreciate our frustrating recommendations concerning the self and the way they're concerning our use of language in particular.
