Full Description
Philosophers and psychologists join forces to investigate a set of problems to do with agency and self-awareness, in 17 essays, presented in this book. There has been much psychological and neurological work purporting to show that consciousness and self-awareness play no role in causing actions, and indeed to demonstrate that free will is an illusion. The essays in this volume subject the assumptions that motivate such claims to sustained interdisciplinary scrutiny.
