books on Free Will – Financial Times review 3/22/07
Written on March 28, 2007
“I think therefore I am, I think” by Stephen Cave (3/22/07) reviews three recent books dealing with free will, but concludes “the book that really does justice to this question is yet to be written.”
Books discussed in the article: Freedom and Neurobiology: Reflections on Free Will, Language, and Political Power (Columbia Themes in Philosophy) by John Searle
Conversations on Consciousness: What the Best Minds Think about the Brain, Free Will, and What It Means to Be Human by Susan Blackmore
Four Views on Free Will (Great Debates in Philosophy) (forthcoming)
[A good book on free will, not reviewed in the above article, is The Illusion of Conscious Will (Bradford Books) by Daniel Wegner.]
