His [O'Connor] book does succeed in putting the ball firmly in the court of those who think that there is something weird about the very idea of persons being the causes of what persons do
James A. Harris, Times Literary Supplement
O'Connor will lend much encouragement to anyone uncomfortable with the reductionist tendencies of contemporary philosophy of action
James A. Harris, Times Literary Supplement
This provocative book refurbishes the traditional account of freedom of will as reasons-guided 'agent' causation, situating its account within a general metaphysics. O'Connor's discussion of the general concept of causation and of ontological reductionism v. emergence will specially interest metaphysicians and philosophers of mind.

"The book is intelligent throughout. O'Connor is unafraid to defend an unfashionable view, and to do so in a bold and imaginative way."--John Martin Fischer, MIND
