    Being No One
    The Self-Model Theory of Subjectivity
    By Thomas Metzinger

    A representationalist, empirically based philosophical exploration of
    consciousness, the subjective experience of selfhood, and the
    first-person perspective.

    "Being No One is Kantian in its scope, intelligence and depth.
    Steeped in contemporary neuroscience, psychology and philosophy, the
    book gives the unsolved Kantian problems of inner self and outer world
    a new look, a new life, and a new route to solution. Metzinger's story
    is understandable, compelling, and, quite simply, very very smart."
