N2 - Multiple self approaches purport that to have equal concern about all stages of one’s life is not a requirement of rationality. This poses a challenge to the prudential lifespan account which Norman Daniels advocates in Just health: meeting health needs fairly.

In Just health, he only takes up the issue except in one footnote, presumably because he is convinced that his preceding discussions settled the matter.
