| Summary |
Annotation The traditional focus of debate in philosophy of action has been the causal theory of action and metaphysical questions about the nature of actions as events. This lucid and lively introduction to philosophy of action shows how these issues are subsidiary to more central ones that concern the nature of the will, practical rationality and moral psychology. By focusing on the idea that agency involves causal sensitivity to reasons, Rowland Stout shows how agency becomes one of the most useful ways into the philosophy of mind. |
