It's All Decided: Life Without Free Will
19.99 €
The only thing available 1
One of the best-known scientists, the author of the best-selling Biology of Good and Evil, which explains our behavior through science, in a new book explores the nature of decision-making from the point of view of neurophysiology, philosophy and psychology – and makes strong arguments against free will.
As Robert Sapolsky shows, all our thoughts and actions are caused by biological factors and interactions with the environment – causes beyond our control. In a world without free will, the concepts of choice and responsibility, morality and justice, must be completely rethought. However, the author believes that recognizing the predictability and predetermined nature of our behavior and the lack of freedom of choice can open the way to building a more humane and just society.
