Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This book explores three key concepts in the philosophy of action: trying to act, acting, and the consequences of actions. The author presents innovative theories, suggesting that actions are often external events rather than mere mental acts. The final chapter addresses skepticism about knowing if someone has truly acted.
