Ragland 27 GotReviewsThe philosophical literature on free will can seem as endless and difficult to navigate as Borges' mythical 'Library of Babel.' This book is the map to that infinite-seeming collection of rooms. The editors have done an extraordinary job of assembling an excellent team of authors to cover every significant aspect of the vibrant contemporary literature on free will. This book should be at the fingertips of every student and scholar who works on free will.
