Rather than an underlying, unchanging substance that acquires and loses properties, we’re making a paradigm shift to seeing the self as a process, as a cumulative network with a changeable integrity.
A cumulative network has structure and organisation, as many natural processes do, whether we think of biological developments, physical processes or social processes.
Think of this constancy and structure as stages of the self overlapping with, or mapping on to, one another.
