Living Without Free Will
In Living Without Free Will, Derk
Pereboom
contends that given our best
scientific theories, factors beyond our control ultimately produce all of our
actions, and that we are therefore not morally responsible for them. His
stance is similar to traditional hard determinism, although he maintains that
if our actions exhibit the sort of indeterminacy attributed to quantum
mechanical events, they would still be produced by factors beyond our
control, and we would not be responsible for them.
Pereboom
defends the view that morality, meaning, and value remain
intact even if we lack moral responsibility, and moreover, he argues that
adopting his position could even be significantly beneficial for our lives.
Living Without Free Will brings an original perspective to the topic of
free will that compels us to
reevaluate
many of our most deeply entrenched
ideas about ourselves. It will interest professionals and students in philoso¬
phy, psychology, and criminology.
