Toward the end of the eighteenth century, a radical change occurred in notions of self and personal identity, says the author of this pathbreaking book. Dror Wahrman explores the phenomenon and its causes and offers a fundamentally new interpretation of this turning point in Western history and its consequences. "?A? comprehensive and richly documented magnum opus on the modern self. . . . The book in all its richness is a fascinating, powerfully argued work that will spawn nuanced debates for a long time into the future."--Felicity A. Nussbaum, "American Historical Review"
