Physical Action Without Interaction
Erkenntnis, 2009In “Action without interaction” (2005) I showed that one might act on a physical system (there, a particle), without interacting with it, by the procedure of making it disappear. This paper presents further extensions and a critique of that result.

Wave action flux: a physical interpretation
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1998Steady, gravity water waves on a constant-over-depth current, progressing over a slowly varying bed, are studied with the purpose of connecting the wave action flux concept with conventional energy flux considerations. The analysis is two-dimensional and dissipation is neglected.

Physicalism, Action, and Explanation
1993Abstract Naturalism, construed broadly, states that whatever exists is part of the natural order of things. One common understanding of the natural order implies that whatever is natural is explainable, at least in principle, by the natural sciences.

How are actions physically implemented?
2009This chapter focuses on the interdisciplinary discussion between cognitive psychologists and neuroscientists on how actions, the results of decision processes, are implemented. After surveying the approaches used in action implementation research, we analyze the contributions of these different approaches in more detail.

The Epistemology of Physical Action
1992Abstract In my book The Will I put forward a dual aspect theory of physical action along the following lines. The theory begins with the claim that whenever we perform an action an event of the type ‘will’ occurs, and that the act in question is identical with that event.
