Introduction
- This is an Electronic Pseudo-Book to record papers and books related to my Thesis on the topic of Personal Identity, or on other matters of interest, that I've downloaded from the Web but not yet had time to log in my database.
- I intend to list them here simply in author sequence so that I can easily find them for removal as – hopefully – the papers get logged when I need to work on them.
- I’ve encoded the authors' names so that I will be alerted by the links from their narrative pages that I have these works.
- I’ve segmented the lists so that I can see what’s important as I work through them.
- There are sundry other papers and books that I’ve downloaded that haven’t even made it this far, as they are by authors not currently in my database, and are not relevant to my Thesis, so adding them to this document would be of little benefit.

In-Page Footnotes ("Various - Papers & Books Yet To Be Logged")
Footnote 1:
- William A. Dembski is noted as a proponent of ‘Intelligent Design’, and therefore a villain in the philosophical and scientific circles in which I move.
- See Wikipedia: William A. Dembski.
- However, one day, it may be worth reading what he has to say on the human condition.
Footnote 2: Footnote 3:
- While this has something to say about animals, and the suggestion that they have intuitions but lack concepts, it is mostly about Kant.
Footnote 4:
- A purely administrative piece, but it might be worth checking out this issue of Philosophy if I haven’t already!
|1|The papers were delivered in 2006, published in 2008.
Footnote 6:
- I think the papers from these issues have already been logged.
- Double-check.
