Self

Each living creature exists as a unit, as self. Understanding the self, then, should be a major goal of scientific research. This volume takes stock of current understanding of the self and its relation to the brain, and considers future directions for scientific research in a multidisciplinary context.NOTE: Annals volumes are available for sale as individual books or as a journal.
