Review of Neuroethics: Agency in the Age of Brain Science by Joshua May

May offers a nuanced and compelling exploration of the ethical challenges posed by advances in brain science. His clear prose, balanced analysis, and interdisciplinary approach make the book an excellent resource for educators and students alike. By addressing fundamental issues such as agency, moral responsibility, personal identity and autonomy, while challenging alarmist attitudes and emphasizing the importance of empirical and philosophical rigor, May equips readers with the tools to engage thoughtfully with a dynamic and evolving field. Whether used as the foundation for a neuroethics course or as a supplementary text in related disciplines, Neuroethics is a valuable and thought-provoking contribution that underscores the relevance of philosophical inquiry in understanding the implications of neuroscience.
