Description
Galen Strawson's groundbreaking work challenges our understanding of free will and moral responsibility. In this revised edition, he argues that there is no fundamental sense in which we have true freedom or are morally responsible for our actions.
Strawson explores the nature of our commitment to believing in freedom, examining various aspects of 'cognitive phenomenology'. He considers the problems raised by the idea that believing ourselves to be free agents would be a necessary condition of being truly free.
This thought-provoking book invites readers to reconsider their assumptions about human agency and moral responsibility. With its clear and concise argumentation, it is an ideal choice for anyone interested in philosophy and ethics.
