What are more modern disputes of Locke's personal identity theory? i.e. memory/consciousness.
I've read reid and other contemporaries but no modern authorship.
I've read stuff from continental philosophy but that supposes a completely different ontology

>modern
Do you mean contemporary philosophy of mind or more stuff like Reid or Hume? I'm going to point you towards a contemporary thing that seems relevant.
>...consciousness always accompanies thinking...
Look into Higher Order Thought (HOT) in the philosophy of mind. That kinda deals explicitly with this issue.

realise I didn't even put the most important things I wanted in OP.
I mean peronal identity theory in relation to the self. so the nature of the self over time.

Ah ok. As far as that goes, the only book on it I've read is a comparative philosophy book (author wants to bring Indian philosophers into dialogue with western ones). It's pretty based. Indians loved that shit and the author does a good job of showing how Indian, modern western philosophers, and contemporary analytic philosophers can all benefit from discussion together.
