Deep Control: Essays on Free Will and Value
ISBN: 9780199742981 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this collection of essays -- a follow up to My Way and Our Stories -- John Martin Fischer defends the contention that moral responsibility is associated with "deep control." Fischer defines deep control as the middle ground between two untenable extreme positions: "superficial control" and "total control." Our freedom consists of the power to add to the given past, holding fixed the laws of nature, and therefore, Fischer contends, we must be able to interpret our actions as extensions of a line that represents the actual past. In "connecting the dots," we engage in a...

Our Stories: Essays on Life, Death, and Free Will
ISBN: 9780195374957 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this collection of essays on the metaphysical issues pertaining to death, the meaning of life, and freedom of the will, John Martin Fischer argues (against the Epicureans) that death can be a bad thing for the individual who dies. He defends the claim that something can be a bad thing--a misfortune--for an individual, even if he never experiences it as bad (and even if he does not any longer exist). Fischer also defends the commonsense asymmetry in our attitudes toward death and prenatal nonexistence: we are indifferent to the time before we are born, but we regret that we do not live...

Responsibility and Control: A Theory of Moral Responsibility
ISBN: 9780521775793 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book provides a comprehensive, systematic theory of moral responsibility. The authors explore the conditions under which individuals are morally responsible for actions, omissions, consequences, and emotions. The leading idea in the book is that moral responsibility is based on "guidance control." This control has two components: the mechanism that issues in the relevant behavior must be the agent's own mechanism, and it must be appropriately responsive to reasons. The book develops an account of both components. The authors go on to offer a sustained defense of the thesis that moral...

The Metasphysics of Free Will: An Essay on Control
ISBN: 9781557868572 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. The Metaphysics of Free Will provides a through statement of the major grounds for skepticism about the reality of free will and moral responsibility. The author identifies and explains the sort of control that is associated with personhood and accountability, and shows how it is consistent with causal determinism. In so doing, out view of ourselves as morally responsible agents is protected against the disturbing changes posed by science and religion.

Our Fate is a collection of John Martin Fischer's previously published articles on the relationship between God's foreknowledge and human freedom. The book contains a new introductory essay that places all of the chapters in the book into a cohesive framework.

Freedom, Fatalism, and Foreknowledge
ISBN: 9780199942411 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. We typically think we have free will. But how could we have free will, if for anything we do, it was already true in the distant past that we would do that thing? Or how could we have free will, if God already knows in advance all the details of our lives? Such issues raise the specter of "fatalism." This book collects sixteen previously published articles on fatalism, truths about the future, and the relationship between divine foreknowledge and human freedom, and includes a substantial introductory essay and bibliography. Many of the pieces collected here build bridges between discussions...

Near-Death Experiences: Understanding Visions of the Afterlife
ISBN: 9780190466602 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Near-death experiences offer a glimpse not only into the nature of death but also into the meaning of life. They are not only useful tools to aid in the human quest to understand death but are also deeply meaningful, transformative experiences for the people who have them.
In a unique contribution to the growing and popular literature on the subject, philosophers John Martin Fischer and Benjamin Mitchell-Yellin examine prominent near-death experiences, such as those of Pam Reynolds, Eben Alexander and Colton Burpo. They combine their investigations with critiques of the narratives'... Near-death experiences offer a glimpse not only into the nature of death but also into the meaning of life.
