Resumen de I am the one and only
Lawton talks about subjective sense of self. Think back to one's earliest memory. Now project forward to the day of one's death. It is impossible to know when this will come, but it will. What one has just surveyed might be called their 'self-span', or the time when this entity they call their self exists. Either side of that, zilch. Which is very mysterious, and a little unsettling. Modern humans have existed for perhaps 100,000 years, and more than 100 billion have already lived and died. People assume that they all experienced a sense of self similar to theirs.
