One thought to ponder upon (from English philosopher John Locke): If the memories of a prince are transferred into a shoemaker and the memories of the shoemaker are transferred into the prince, "who" are they? Who is the individual with the body of the prince and the memories of the shoemaker? Is it the prince or is it the shoemaker? (and viceversa).
Question: Is your body that determines who you are, or are your memories? (Or both? Or neither?)
