Who am I, really—and why is that such a difficult question to answer?
In The Paradox of Self, psychologist Fay Jackson unpacks the complex, often contradictory nature of identity. Drawing from psychology, philosophy, and neuroscience, Jackson explores why the self is both familiar and elusive—shaped by memory, emotion, social roles, and shifting perspectives.
With clarity and depth, this book guides readers through the inner terrain of self-concept, from the masks we wear to the truths we hide even from ourselves. Insightful and illuminating, The Paradox of Self invites us to embrace the fluidity of identity—and to find peace in not always having the answers.
To know yourself is a journey, not a destination.
