Bennett, John B. “Whitehead and Personal Identity.” Thomist, 37 (July 1973): 510-521.
Abstract
In A Christian Natural Theology, John B Cobb presents a Whiteheadian theory of personal identity which he argues is adequate to human experience. I suggest that Cobb's argument, while important, incorrectly relates the resources it identifies. I then attempt to sketch the interplay of memory, disposition, and intentional action as grounds for ascriptions of identity within the context provided by Whitehead's philosophy.
