Shows why the discovery of the unconscious by Nietzsche and Freud demands a reconceptualisation of 'moral agency' and 'responsibility' - and even of morality itself. Riker develops a new moral psychology in which the reality of unconscious functioning is included within a theory of responsibility. 192 pages.
