Paperback. Condizione: New. A philosopher considers whether the scientific and philosophical arguments against free will are reason enough to give up our belief in it.In our daily life, it really seems as though we have free will, that what we do from moment to moment is determined by conscious decisions that we freely make. You get up from the couch, you go for a walk, you eat chocolate ice cream. It seems that we're in control of actions like these; if we are, then we have free will. But in recent years, some have argued that free will is an illusion. The neuroscientist (and best-selling author) Sam Harris and the late Harvard psychologist Daniel Wegner, for example, claim that certain scientific findings disprove free will. In this engaging and accessible volume in the Essential Knowledge series, the philosopher Mark Balaguer examines the various arguments and experiments that have been cited to support the claim that human beings don't have free will. He finds them to be overstated and misguided.Balaguer discusses determinism, the view that every physical event is predetermined, or completely caused by prior events. He describes several philosophical and scientific arguments against free will, including one based on Benjamin Libet's famous neuroscientific experiments, which allegedly show that our conscious decisions are caused by neural events that occur before we choose. He considers various religious and philosophical views, including the philosophical pro-free-will view known as compatibilism. Balaguer concludes that the anti-free-will arguments put forward by philosophers, psychologists, and neuroscientists simply don't work. They don't provide any good reason to doubt the existence of free will. But, he cautions, this doesn't necessarily mean that we have free will. The question of whether we have free will remains an open one; we simply don't know enough about the brain to answer it definitively.…

Condizione: Very Good. : En este accesible volumen de la serie Essential Knowledge, el filósofo Mark Balaguer examina los argumentos y experimentos que se han citado para respaldar la afirmación de que los seres humanos no tienen libre albedrío. Balaguer analiza el determinismo, la opinión de que todo evento físico está predeterminado o completamente causado por eventos anteriores. Considera varios puntos de vista religiosos y filosóficos, incluido el punto de vista filosófico pro-libre albedrío conocido como compatibilismo. Balaguer concluye que los argumentos anti-libre albedrío presentados por filósofos, psicólogos y neurocientíficos simplemente no funcionan y no dan ninguna buena razón para dudar de la existencia del libre albedrío. Sin embargo, advierte que esto no significa necesariamente que tengamos libre albedrío. La cuestión de si tenemos libre albedrío sigue siendo una cuestión abierta; simplemente no sabemos lo suficiente sobre el cerebro para responderla definitivamente. EAN: 9780262525794 Tipo: Libros Categoría: Filosofía Título: Free Will Autor: Mark Balaguer Editorial: MIT Press Ltd Idioma: en Páginas: 152 Formato: tapa blanda.…
