Reviews

'This book is a fascinating discussion of the problem of negative actions and the related problem of negative action sentences. It develops an original and sophisticated neo-Davidsonian approach, one according to which negative actions are events that ensure that the agent doesn't perform an action of the omitted kind. It will be of interest to a broad audience encompassing philosophers of action, metaphysicians, and philosophers of language.' Carolina Sartorio, University of Arizona
