Cover of Alfred R. Mele: Motivation and Agency (PDF)

What place does motivation have in the lives of intelligent agents? Mele’s answer is sensitive to the concerns of philosophers of mind and moral philosophers and informed by empirical work. He offers a distinctive, comprehensive, attractive view of human agency. This book stands boldly at the intersection of philosophy of mind, moral philosophy, and metaphysics.
