Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. What sets intentional actions apart from the rest has long been a central question in the philosophy of action. In this book, Markos Valaris offers a novel answer, grounded in a distinctive 'knowledge-first' conception of agential control. Rejecting decompositional accounts that analyse intentional action into separate mental and bodily components, Valaris argues that control is best understood as a capacity for knowledge of a distinctively practical kind. This framework yields a unified account of intentional action and illuminates several live debates in the field, including the ontology of actions as events, the epistemology of intentional action, and the nature of skill. Develops a 'knowledge-first' theory of intentional action that places control, understood as a capacity for practical knowledge, at its core. This book is intended for academics and students interested in philosophy of action. This item is printed on demand.
