Author:Sam HarrisPublisher:Hamid KhattabPublish Year:2012Pages:80Categories:Philosophy and CounselingDescription:In Sam Harris's Free Will, the question of free will relates to almost everything we care about. Everything human about our lives seems to depend on our view of others as capable of free choice. Chapters span the introduction, the unconscious origins of the will, changing the subject, cause and effect, choices, efforts, and intentions, asking could the truth be bad for us, and moral responsibility. Do I magically regain my freedom if I decide to go against my preferences and order wine?. No, because the roots of this intention remain as mysterious as the preference itself.
