loginThe Tanner Lectures on Human Values, which honor the Americanscholar, industrialist, and philanthropist Obert Clark Tanner, are presentedannually at each of nine universities in the United States and England.They were established at the University of California, Berkeley, beginningin the2000/2001academic year. This volume is the fifth in a series of booksbased on the Berkeley Tanner Lectures. In this volume we include thelectures that Allan Gibbard presented in March2006, along with the re-sponses of the three invited commentators on that occasion—MichaelBratman, John Broome, and F. M. Kamm—and a final rejoinder by Pro-fessor Gibbard. The volume is edited by Barry Stroud, who also contributesan introduction. We have established the Berkeley Tanner Lectures Seriesin the belief that these distinguished lectures, together with the livelydebates stimulated by their presentation in Berkeley, deserve to be madeavailable to a wider audience. Additional volumes are now in preparation.
