How is strength of will possible?
In Christine Tappolet & Sarah Stroud (eds.), Weakness of Will and Practical Irrationality. Oxford (2003)
| Abstract | Most recent accounts of will-power have tried to explain it as reducible to the operation of beliefs and desires. In opposition to such accounts, this paper argues for a distinct faculty of will-power. Considerations from philosophy and from social psychology are used in support. | |||||||||
