{"product_id":"feeling-like-it-tamar-schapiro-9780198862932","title":"Feeling Like It: A Theory of Inclination and Will","description":"You may have an inclination to do it, but there is still a moment when you can decide to do it or not. This \"moment of drama\" is more puzzling than it first appears. When you are inclined to do something, are you related to your inclination as rider to horse? As ruler to subject? As thinker to thoughts? Schapiro shows that these familiar pictures fail to confront the central puzzle. Inclinations are motives with respect to which we are distinctively passive. But to be motivated is to be active--to be self-moved. How can you be passive in relation to your own activity? Schapiro puts forward an \"inner animal\" view, inspired by Kant, which holds that when you are merely inclined to act, the instinctive part of yourself is already active, while the rest of you is not. At this moment, your will is at a crossroads. You can humanize your inclination, or you can dehumanize yourself. \u003cem\u003eFeeling Like It\u003c\/em\u003e provides a concise and accessible investigation of a new problem at the intersection of ethics, philosophy of action, and philosophy of mind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tamar Schapiro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198862938\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198862932\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2022","brand":"Tamar Schapiro","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43994561773823,"sku":"9780198862932","price":83.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6fb0725f-a1da-492d-ab4d-a0737305d42b.jpg?v=1683330889","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/feeling-like-it-tamar-schapiro-9780198862932","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
