Free Will

This volume from the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series explores the longstanding debate over human free will, examining various scientific and philosophical arguments that challenge or support its existence. Philosopher Mark Balaguer critically assesses claims related to determinism and neuroscientific experiments, ultimately finding many of these anti-free-will arguments unconvincing. While the debate remains open due to current limitations in understanding the brain, the book offers a balanced and accessible view of this complex issue.
