The concept of individual autonomy is one of the most frequently utilized, and perhaps least understood, of the terms of current moral, political, and legal debate. This volume, the first devoted entirely to the subject, brings together the work of some of the most prominent thinkers in philosophy who have turned their attention the topic, including essays by Gerald Dworkin, Joel Feinberg, David A. J. Richards, and Susan Wolf. The approach in the articles is theoretical, and provides a necessary foundation for the myriad debates and controversies, in areas such as bioethics, feminism and paternalism, whose resolution ultimately turns on the nature and value of this idea.
