I have no idea whether it's obnoxious, or just how obnoxious is it, to post this here, but I suppose a tiny number of people might have some interest in hearing this interview about my book Responsibility from the Margins, conducted by Bob Talisse for New Books in Philosophy. In it I discuss the following: the master argument for the tripartite "quality of will" theory of responsibility, drawn from our ambivalent sentimental responses to marginal agents; what the tripartite theory predicts, once fed empirical details, about the responsibility of several specific marginal agents (those with clinical depression, psychopathy, autism, dementia, and horrific upbringings); and some attractive features of the theory for non-Strawsonians.
Marginally obnoxious, I'd say ;-)
I look forward to listening.

I'd been waiting for that joke to finally drop. Thanks, Eddy.
