In this paper I first give a summary and modification of an analysis of human action for which I have argued elsewhere (NoÛs, Vol. 2 [1968], No. 2). I then distinguish true, correct and applicable descriptions of actions and propose a thesis by which a single action may be correctly described by more than one description. Finally, I state and argue against the thesis of a paper of A. B. Cody's (Inquiry, Vol. 10 [1967], No. 2), according to which a single action can be correctly described by no more than one description.
