DESCRIPTION:One way of capturing the force of practical reasoning\, or del
 iberation\, is to think of it as inference (e.g. the practical syllogism).
  I reject this inferential model\, and offer another\, under which the for
 ce of reasoning is of a rather different sort. The conclusion of a process
  of deliberation can\, on this new model\, be an action\, and such deliber
 ation can have a structure\, but it is not inferential structure.
