(2010) Sartre on the body, Dordrecht, Springer.
The notion of the lived body is perhaps one of the most important contributions which phenomenology has made to philosophy. Within the Western philosophical tradition, important works often seem to have sprung full- blown from disembodied spirits, much as Athena is said to have sprung from the head of Zeus. A sense of embodiment often seems to be entirely lacking in recent analytic philosophical writings on the mind/body problem and on personal identity. The first section of this chapter addresses this point in more detail.
