In recent years the concepts of individual autonomy and political liberalism have been the subjects of intense debate, but these discussions have occurred largely within separate academic disciplines. Autonomy and the Challenges to Liberalism contains essays devoted to foundational questions regarding both the notion of the autonomous self and the nature and justification of liberalism. Written by leading figures in moral, legal and political theory, the volume covers inter alia the following topics: the nature of the self and its relation to autonomy, the social dimensions of autonomy and...

In 1940, A A Lyapunov published his celebrated discovery that the range of a nonatomic vector-valued measure is convex and compact. This book presents the result of a systematic generalization of Lyapunov's theorem to the setting of operator algebras. The author's point of view follows that of Lindenstrauss, so that, in their terminology, Lyapunov's theorem asserts that if *v is a weak* continuous map of a nonatomic abelian von Neumann algebra *N into Cn, and B denotes the positive part of the unit ball of *N, then for each a *e B there is an extreme point p of B (i.e., a projection) with *v...
