assess Johnston’s argument, let us suppose that we reject this view. Suppose we believe that, if someone kills, she is guilty of something worse than merely attempting murder. On this view, such a person should feel more remorse, and may deserve more punishment. Note next that, in my example, White does not merely attempt murder.

In attempting things she had been severely warned against (sometimes with punishment), my twenty-two-month-old daughter would attack the matter with great zeal, muttering "no no no no" under her breath. Right or wrong, an invention is an invention and carries its own motivation. But the example illustrates very clearly the way in
