Description: "Using classical and contemporary philosophical ideas, as well as stories from literature and recent films, this book involves the reader in considering alternative possibilities for self-development. By reflecting on possible selves and possible lives, the reader should be able to give greater depth to self-interested thinking.

One who views self-interest in the light of what it takes to live a desirable life is likely to discover the value of building a self with a range of motivations besides self-interest."--BOOK JACKET.
