Slaves of the Passions

Indexed incrossref

Abstract

Mark Schroeder presents an original theory of reasons for action. This theory is broadly Humean, in holding that reasons for action are instrumental, or explained by desires. 'Slaves of the Passions' will be essential reading for anyone interested in metaethics, practical reason, or explanatory moral theory.
