Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of human consciousness and its intricate relationship with time, exploring the age-old philosophical debate surrounding free will. The author challenges conventional notions of time as a linear, measurable entity and instead proposes the concept of 'duration' ââ â a continuous, qualitative flow of experience that shapes our perception of reality. Drawing upon insights from evolutionary biology, psychology, and the history of philosophy, the book argues that our understanding of free will has been hindered by an overreliance on intellect and logic. By embracing intuition ââ â a deeper, more immediate mode of knowing ââ â we can gain a truer understanding of ourselves as beings embedded in the dynamic process of becoming. Through a thought-provoking analysis of concepts like instinct, intelligence, and the limitations of language, the author invites us to reconsider our place in the universe and the nature of our agency. Ultimately, this book offers a compelling case for the existence of free will, not as an abstract ideal but as a lived experience intertwined with the very essence of our being.
