"Self and Identity in Modern Psychology and Indian Thought" offers an in-depth analysis of the concepts of personal identity rooted in both Indian philosophy and modern Euro-American psychology. The author, Anand Paranjpe, explores the differences and similarities between these two traditions and highlights the historical, disciplinary, and cultural gaps that shape the study of the self. By examining theoretical perspectives such as univocalism, relativism, and pluralism, a comprehensive picture of identity concepts is presented. Notably, the book compares views on the self as represented by influential thinkers Erik H. Erikson and Advaita Vedanta. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersections between psychology and philosophy and seeking to understand the complexity of the self in various cultural contexts.
