Part One comprises a comprehensive examination of the standard treatments of the relations between desires, beliefs, and actions.  In Part Two, Mele goes on to develop a subtle and well-defended view\n\u003cbr\u003ethat the motivational role of intentions is of a different sort from that of beliefs and desires.  Mele, also offers a provocative explanation of how we come to have intentions and elaborates on his\n\u003cbr\u003eearlier work concerning akratic failures of will.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44156733194478,"sku":"9780195071146","price":364.91,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/springs-of-action","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
