Join us for an exciting book talk with Dr. Michell Maiese, Professor of Philosophy, and Dr. Adam Silver, Associate Professor of Political Science, Department of Political Science and International Studies.

Dr. Maiese's recently released book, Autonomy, enactivism, and mental disorder: A philosophical account,  "brings together insights from the enactivist approach in philosophy of mind and existing work on autonomous agency from both philosophy of action and feminist philosophy. It then utilizes this proposed account of autonomous agency to make sense of the impairments in agency that commonly occur in cases of dissociative identity disorder, mood disorders, and psychopathy" (https://www.routledge.com/Autonomy-Enactivism-and-Mental-Disorder-A-Philosophical-Account/Maiese/p/book/9781032003160#).
