| Sumario: | According to animalism, each of us is numerically identical to a human animal.
Disunity cases – cases in which a human animal lacks some form of mental unity –
are often thought to pose a problem for animalism. Tim Bayne has recently offered
some novel arguments against animalism based on one particular disunity case,
namely Cerberus: a single animal with two heads, each housing its own stream
of consciousness. I show that Bayne’s arguments are flawed, and that animalism is
capable of handling the case. |
