Description

This book is designed as a practical and reflective journey into understanding the self through applied philosophy. It begins with the fundamental question, "Who am I?" introducing major perspectives from philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience. Readers explore how the self can be viewed as physical, mental, social, and moral, and how identity evolves through experiences, thoughts, relationships, and personal values.

The following chapters examine the making of the self through the combined forces of nature, nurture, culture, language, and memory. Classical thinkers such as Locke, Hume, and Kant appear alongside contemporary ideas to show how we construct meaning and build narratives about who we are. Activities such as rewriting personal memories or creating self-portraits help students connect theory with experience.Later sections focus on consciousness, emotion, free will, ethics, and the role of society in shaping behaviour. Each chapter blends conceptual clarity with real-life examples so readers can apply philosophical tools to decisions, relationships, and self-growth.

By the end, the book becomes a guide for living thoughtfully. It encourages students to reflect, question, and reshape their inner world with intention. Through applied philosophy, readers learn not just to study the self but to understand and transform it.
