Surprisingly, Reid''s account of instincts doesn''t diverge greatly from Tinbergen''s more contemporary account. Reid''s claims with regard to appetites and desires can be made relevant to current insights. Moreover, his theory of emotions can be related to current theories of the emotions, like Damasio''s somatic marker hypothesis and Griffiths'' distinction between basic and higher cognitive emotions. Reid''s theory of causation has central features in common with Price''s contemporary manipulability theory of causation. His rational principles of action seem to be rather out of date, yet, they can be made intelligible as part of a certain kind of protestant ethics. And Reid''s account of freedom of action one could claim that it is common sense, which had its resurrection in Moore''s philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1 Preface Chapter 2 Acknowledgments Chapter 3 Introduction Chapter 4 Instincts, Habits, and Consciousness Chapter 5 Appetites and Desires Chapter 6 Emotions Chapter 7 Rational Principles of Action Chapter 8 Human Motivation Chapter 9 Freedom of Action Chapter 10 Causation Chapter 11 Bibliography Chapter 12 Index Chapter 13 About the Author","brand":"University Press of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037791060311,"sku":"9780761831860","price":42.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780761831860.jpg?v=1750937338","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/reids-philosophy-of-psychology-9780761831860","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
