Reincarnation for Everyone

Abstract I argue that rebirth (reincarnation) is metaphysically versatile, in the sense that it can be made to work with a variety of popular metaphysical views about the human person. By drawing on the Buddhist appeal to karmic causation in place of a transmigrating soul, I sketch accounts of rebirth, or something close enough to rebirth for us to care about, that are suited to Baker's constitutionalism, Lewis's four-dimensionalism, and Olson's animalism.
