Many even assume that our view of human nature and our social order are at stake. This book shows that the academic debate is often conducted under misleading assumptions: Practical freedom should not only be explored in quixotic laboratory experiments.

Learn how already Socrates rejected the idea that humans are only the sum of their physical parts. The book then shows how the dispute over free will in Christianity almost led to a civil war. From the 18th century onwards, scientifically influenced ideas became increasingly important. Biology, physiology and physics have an extensive say before psychology and brain research take over the topic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \n                \u003cp\u003e\n                                        \n                    \u003cem\u003eScience and Free Will\u003c\/em\u003e\n                                         explains why the endless debate over determinism is not the core of the problem.
