Title

Rediscovering Empathy: Agency, Folk Psychology, and the Human Sciences

Subject

Psychology—Philosophy.

Description

This book constitutes a systematic and historically informed defense of the controversial thesis that empathy is epistemically central to our folkpsychological ability to understand other agents. I will develop the argument for empathy in the context of current philosophy of mind and the interdisciplinary debate about the nature of our mindreading abilities, a debate that involves a multitude of disciplines ranging from philosophy to neuroscience. As I will explain in the introduction, one can defend empathy success.
