Thinking about self-control takes us to the heart of practical
decision-making, human agency, motivation, and rational choice.
Psychologists, philosophers, and decision theorists have all
brought valuable insights and perspectives on how to model
self-control, on different mechanisms for achieving and
strengthening self-control, and on how self-control fits into the
overall cognitive and affective economy. Yet these different
literatures have remained relatively insulated from each other.
Self-Control, Decision Theory, and Rationality brings them into
dialog by focusing on the theme of rationality. It contains eleven
newly written essays by a distinguished group of philosophers,
psychologists, and decision theorists, together with a substantial
introduction, collectively offering state-of-the-art perspectives
on the rationality of self-control and the different mechanisms for
achieving it.
