Nomy Arpaly rejects the model of rationality used by most philosophers andpsychologists. Both observation and psychology indicate that people actrationally without deliberation, and act irrationally with deliberation. Byquestioning the notion that our own minds are comprehensible to us--andtherefore questioning much of the current work of action theorists andethicists--Arpaly attempts to develop a more realistic conception of moralagency.
