Understanding human agency [electronic resource] / Erasmus Mayr. Mayr, Erasmus. Act (Philosophy) Agent (Philosophy) B105.A35 M3 2011 128.4 23 Includes bibliographical references and index. Description based on print version record. How can we be active agents when processes in the world are explicable by the laws of natural science? Erasmus Mayr explores this deep-running tension in our self-understanding and develops a new agent-causal solution to the conflict. He argues that actions explained by aims and reasons are compatible with a scientific view of the universe.
