Recenzii
The essays in this volume take important steps toward identifying the core features of manipulation, and they are well written, thorough and methodical. The book contains multiple perspectives on the methods of manipulation, discussing the distinction between manipulation and coercion, the moral status (or statuses) of manipulation, how manipulation is used as a morally loaded term from several viewpoints, and a discussion about the ethics of more systemic attempts at manipulation in our societies. In short, Manipulation: Theory and Practice is a valuable and engaging contribution to the literature.
The ten essays collected here will ... provide readers with a firm understanding of the basic philosophical questions concerning interpersonal manipulation ... This book's clear writing and avoidance of jargon enable those who lack a rich philosophical background to read these essays with profit... recommended.
The essays in this volume offer nuanced and insightful contributions to a developing conversation in analytic philosophy about psychological manipulation. The volume should be read by any scholar interested in manipulation and the diverse range of philosophical questions it raises.
All of the essays make interesting, thoughtful contributions to answering these questions. They also acknowledge each other. This gives a nice sense of a collaborative effort, despite the differences in the details. Coons and Weber's introduction is masterful Overall, this is a very worthwhile book. It is rammed to the rafters with interesting examples, and all of the contributions have something interesting to say. It is an important topic, and I hope -- and expect -- this collection will inspire more to examine it.
