The first anthology devoted entirely to this philosophical concept, \u003ci\u003eThe Inner Citadel\u003c\/i\u003e includes both extensive discussions of autonomy itself and theoretical applications of autonomy to various areas of philosophical inquiry.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eJohn Christman has assembled essays by eminent philosophers including Gerald Dworkin, Joel Feinberg, Harry Frankfurt, and David A. J. Richards. Together, these essays provide the necessary foundation for the myriad debates and controversies in areas such as bioethics, feminism, and paternalism whose resolution turns on the nature and value of individual autonomy. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs the idea of autonomy is central to a wide range of philosophical issues and impinges on other disciplines, \u003ci\u003eThe Inner Citadel\u003c\/i\u003e will be essential reading for students of moral, political, social, and legal philosophy, as well as a valuable resource for those interested in law, political science, and psychology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn Christman\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Philosophy, Political Science, and Women's Studies at Penn State University.
