Double-weighted statement

Double-weighting for this book is being requested because of the breadth and depth of the research contained. The book (which Michael Smith describes as ‘rich and penetrating…a must read’) provides a large-scale defence of Sandis’ argument for pluralism about action and its explanation. The scope of the argument of this book is exemplified by the original contributions it offers to a number of philosophical debates in ethics, moral psychology, the philosophies of history and social science, and the philosophy of mind and action.
