Free Will and Consciousness: A Determinist Account of the Illusion of Free Will - Paperback

by Gregg Caruso (Author)

This book argues two main things: The first is that there is no such thing as free will--at least not in the sense most ordinary folk take to be central or fundamental; the second is that the strong and pervasive belief in free will can be accounted for through a careful analysis of our phenomenology and a proper theoretical understanding of consciousness.
