Description:

Freedom of the Will provides a novel interpretation of G. E. Moore's famous conditional analysis of free will and discusses several questions about the meaning of free will and its significance for moral responsibility. Although Moore' theory has a strong initial appeal, most metaphysicians believe that there are conclusive arguments against it. Here Huoranszki argues that the importance of conditional analysis must be reevaluated in light of some recent developments in the theory of dispositions.

Review Quotes:

Freedom of the Will is very clear and elaborate, offering discussions and solutions of a number of analytic puzzles about free will...Huoranszki's Freedom of the Will is an exciting, clearly argued book that should be read by everybody who wants to know how contemporary compatibilists try to solve the metaphysical issue of free will." -Bernáth László in Incite
