Addiction and Self-Control: Perspectives from Philosophy, Psychology, and Neuroscience
ISBN: 9780199862580 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book brings together a set of papers, many which grow out of presentations at a conference in Oxford in 2009 on addiction and self-control, by a set of thinkers who are united in believing that understanding agency and failures of agency requires engagement with the best science. The papers it collects attempts to illuminate the mechanisms involved in addiction and thereby to understand to what degree and in what ways actions driven by addiction are controlled by the agent, express his or her will or values, and the extent to which addicts are responsible for what they do. Some of the...

Neuroethics: Challenges for the 21st Century
ISBN: 9780521687263 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Neuroscience has dramatically increased understanding of how mental states and processes are realized by the brain, thus opening doors for treating the multitude of ways in which minds become dysfunctional. This book explores questions such as when is it permissible to alter a person's memories, influence personality traits or read minds? What can neuroscience tell us about free will, self-control, self-deception and the foundations of morality? The view of neuroethics offered here argues that many of our new powers to read, alter and control minds are not entirely unparalleled with older...

Evolutionary Ethics: Volume III
ISBN: 9780754627586 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Might human morality be a product of evolution? An increasing number of philosophers and scientists believe that moral judgment and behaviour emerged because it enhanced the fitness of our distant ancestors. This volume collects some recent explorations of the evidence for this claim, as well as papers examining its implications. Is an evolved morality a genuine morality? Does an evolutionary origin deflate the pretensions of morality, or strip it of its force in guiding behaviour? Is an evolutionary approach compatible with realism about morality? All sides of these debates are represented...

Consciousness and Moral Responsibility
ISBN: 9780198704638 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Neil Levy presents an original theory of freedom and responsibility. Cognitive neuroscience and psychology provide a great deal of evidence that our actions are often shaped by information of which we are not conscious; some psychologists have concluded that we are actually conscious of very few of the facts we respond to. But most people seem to assume that we need to be conscious of the facts we respond to in order to be responsible for what we do. Some thinkers have argued that this naive assumption is wrong, and we need not be conscious of these facts to be responsible, while others think...

Hard Luck: How Luck Undermines Free Will and Moral Responsibility
ISBN: 9780199601387 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The concept of luck has played an important role in debates concerning free will and moral responsibility, yet participants in these debates have relied upon an intuitive notion of what luck is. Neil Levy develops an account of luck, which is then applied to the free will debate. He argues that the standard luck objection succeeds against common accounts of libertarian free will, but that it is possible to amend libertarian accounts so that they are no more vulnerable to luck than is compatibilism. But compatibilist accounts of luck are themselves vulnerable to a powerful luck objection:...

Evolutionary Psychology: Volume II
ISBN: 9780754627555 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Evolutionary approaches to the study of human beings have been able to explain the origin and maintenance of many of the features of our bodies. Many thinkers believe that an evolutionary approach will be equally fruitful when it comes to explaining the features of our minds. Since our behaviour is driven by our minds, our cognitive dispositions and processes are likely to have been a target of selection and adaptation. This volume collects recent prominent explorations of this theme, as well as the voices of dissenters who argue that our minds are far more significantly the product of...

The Routledge Companion to Free Will
ISBN: 9781138795815 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 730 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Questions concerning free will are intertwined with issues in almost every area of philosophy, from metaphysics to philosophy of mind to moral philosophy, and are also informed by work in different areas of science (principally physics, neuroscience and social psychology). Free will is also a perennial concern of serious thinkers in theology and in non-western traditions. Because free will can be approached from so many different perspectives and has implications for so many debates, a comprehensive survey needs to encompass an enormous range of approaches. This book is the first to draw... Questions concerning free will are intertwined with issues in almost every area of philosophy, from metaphysics to philosophy of mind to moral phil... |
