Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book re-examines the philosophical debate between free will and determinism, evaluating the arguments presented by J. S. Mill. The author discusses the relationship between free will and the power to change one's character, the psychological theories of mind and matter put forward by Mill, and the tensions between freedom and fatalism. The book concludes by arguing that free will is not incompatible with determinism and that the two concepts can be reconciled. The author asserts that free will is the power to shape one's own circumstances through the exercise of one's will, even if one's character is formed by external influences. This nuanced perspective challenges traditional views on free will and determinism, offering a fresh approach to understanding the complex relationship between human agency and causality.
