essays on mind, ethics, and self in honor of Owen Flanagan
This collection offers cutting-edge chapters on themes related to the philosophical work of Owen Flanagan. Flanagan is an influential philosopher in the late 20th and early 21st Century, whose wide-ranging work spans philosophy of mind (especially consciousness, identity and the self), ethics and moral psychology, comparative philosophy and philosophical study of psychopathology (especially disorders of self, dreams and addiction). Flanagan is the author of numerous scholarly and popular articles, and of ten books. The chapters present proposals for productive interdisciplinary research exploring the mind, ethics, personhood, consciousness, religious cognition, mental disorders, addiction, the narrative self, virtue, the social sciences, forgiveness or comparative philosophy.
