Bundling links a series of similar choices, each of which predicts the direction of all subsequent ones. The book offers a thorough defense of bundling, examining it from various perspectives. The discussion engages with important contemporary thinkers in the fields of rationality, morality and personal identity, including Elster, McClennen, Gauthier, Bratman, Mele, Nozick, Davidson and others.
