Incompatibilism's Allure: Principle Arguments for Incompatibilism (Critical Issues in Philosophy) - Tapa blanda

"This book is the most comprehensive study of arguments for the incompatibility of free will and determinism to have appeared in several decades. Haji examines the strengths and the weaknesses of a wide variety of arguments for incompatibilism with the perceptiveness and attention to detail that characterize his other influential writings on free will and moral responsibility."--Robert Kane "Haji lucidly explains and critically assesses the leading arguments for the view that determinism is incompatible with free will and moral responsibility. I strongly recommend Incompatibilism's Allure for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses on free will and moral responsibility. Students will find this book extremely useful, and people who publish on Haji's topics will benefit from it as well."--Alfred R. Mele "Incompatibilism's Allure offers by far the most comprehensive and accessible treatment of the thesis that determinism is incompatible with both free will and moral responsibility. Haji has carefully examined every major argument for incompatibilism, exposing each to thorough scrutiny, and offering a judicious assessment of the credibility of this age old thesis. An especially noteworthy asset of Incomaptibilism's Allure is its teachability. It is clear, accessible, and organized in the best way possible for the purposes of introducing these complex ideas to the uninitiated. Nevertheless, Haji also manages to make important contributions to work on free will and moral responsibility. Anyone with an interest in this topic will certainly profit from Haji's fine effort."--Michael McKenna "Incompatibilism's Allure offers by far the most comprehensive and accessible treatment of the thesis that determinism is incompatible with both free will and moral responsibility.
