In Praise of Ambivalence is written by D. Justin Coates and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0197652395 (ISBN 10) and 9780197652398 (ISBN 13).
In Praise of Ambivalence develops a novel account of ambivalence and its significance. Against Unificationist accounts of agency, which hold that well-functioning agency aims for wholeheartedness, Coates argues that the best forms of human agency are not only compatible with ambivalence but regularly require it. Ambivalence is thus not a volitional defect, but a crucial constituent of well-functioning agency.
