The Nature of Moral Responsibility by Randolph Clarke

What is it to be morally responsible for something? Recent philosophical work reveals considerable disagreement on the question.

There are new voices here, and the old voices find new and interesting things to say.. There is a lot to say on the subject. I hasten to add that much of what is said in this volume is very insightful ... I mentioned that this volume would be beneficial for both specialists and those familiarizing themselves with the current state of the debate. One reason for this is that several of the chapters expand on recent monographs. These chapters are profitable whether or not one is already familiar with the previous works. * Benjamin Mitchell-Yellin, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Online *
