Talking to Our Selves: Reflection, Ignorance, and Agency

New York: Oxford University Press (2015)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Do we know what we're doing, and why? Psychological research seems to suggest not: reflection and self-awareness are surprisingly uncommon and inaccurate. John M. Doris presents a new account of agency and responsibility, which reconciles our understanding of ourselves as moral agents with empirical work on the unconscious mind.
