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. It seems that were in control of actions like these; if we are, then we have 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 dont have free will. He finds them to be overstated and misguided. The question of whether we have free will remains an open one; we simply dont know enough about the brain to answer it definitively.
