As an advanced introduction to the challenging topic of free will, this book is
designed for upper-level undergraduates interested in a comprehensive first stop
into the field’s issues and debates. It is written by two of the leading participants
in those debates—a compatibilist on the issue of free will and determinism
(Michael McKenna) and an incompatibilist (Derk Pereboom). These two authors
achieve an admirable objectivity and clarity while still illuminating the field’s
complexity and key advances. Each chapter is structured to work as one week’s
primary reading in a course on free will, while more advanced courses can dip
into the annotated further readings, suggested at the end of each chapter. A com-
prehensive bibliography and a detailed author index are included at the back of
the book. |
