Altruistic Behavior: An Inquiry into Motivation: An Inquiry into Motivation: Value Inquiry Book Series, cartea 35
Autor Paul S. Penneren Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 1994
The book includes a critique of the several main approaches to the explanation of the motivation for altruistic behavior: biological, psychological, and philosophical. The path of the main inquiry produces several innovative proposals in the philosophy of mind in addition to the main conclusion. Included in these are a detailed account of the structure of the human mind, an ontological categorization of mental states, a naturalistic explanation of so-called mystical states, a proposal for the role of consciousness in the downward causation of physical events, a new interpretation of the Buddhist doctrine of no-self and a unique view of the nature of love.
