Book synopsis

"Autonomous Agents" addresses the related topics of self-control and individual autonomy. "Self-control" is defineed as the opposite of akrasia - weakness of will. The study of self-control seeks to understand the concept of its own terms, followed by an examination of its bearing on one's actions, beliefs, emotions, and personal values. It goes on to consider how a proper understanding of self-control and its manifestations can shed light on personal autonomy and autonomous behaviour. This book is intended for students and scholars of philosophy and ethics.
