A Philosophical Account

Produktbeschreibung

This book connects insights from the enactivist approach in philosophy of mind and work on autonomous agency from both philosophy of action and feminist philosophy. It uses this account of autonomous agency to make sense of the impairments in agency that occur in cases of dissociative identity disorder, mood disorders, and psychopathy.
