I would still consider this a completely different person, since the breath, the spirit is not bestowed simply on our memories.
The second book was Judas Unchained if I remember correctly.

How about the Takeshi Kovacs series by Richard Morgan, where faced with FTL communications but limited to sublight transportation the usual method of interstellar travel is to have your personality "needlecast" into a new body, or "sleeve" at your destination?
