Description
Self-Knowing Agents by Lucy O'Brien explores the nature of first-person reference and self-knowledge, arguing that our agency as agents is crucial to understanding these concepts.
The author considers two central questions: what account of first-person reference can respect its guaranteed nature, and how do we understand our knowledge of our mental and physical actions?
This book offers a rigorous discussion of rival views on the philosophy of mind and action, making it of interest to those working in this field.
