4.9/5 (34428 ratings)

Description:Human Freedom and the Self (Lindley Lecture) - ASIN B0007IVLO4In this lecture, Chisholm develops a libertarian agent-causal theory of action, according to which freedom of the sort required for moral responsibility is accounted for by the existence of agents who possess a causal power to make choices without being determined to do so. In this view, it is crucial that the kind of causation involved in an agent's making a free choice is not reducible to causation between events but is rather irreducibly an instance of a substance causing a choice. When such an agent acts freely, she can be inclined but not causally determined to act by factors such as reasons, desires, and beliefs.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
