Self Deception and Akrasia: A Comparative Conceptual Analysis

By M Sultana

Throughout the history of philosophy, many have been amazed at the human person's enormous capacity for knowledge and self-deception for virtue and akrasia, and have been wont to wonder about the possibility of both to sit squarely within the same human breast....The work concludes with suggestions about the relevance of self-deception and akrasia both to the practice of philosophy itself and to the understanding of religious belief.
