Synopsis
Do we consciously cause our actions, or do they happen to us? Philosophers, psychologists, neuroscientists, theologians, and lawyers have long debated the existence of free will versus determinism. In this book Daniel Wegner offers a novel understanding of the issue. Like actions, he argues, the feeling of conscious will is created by the mind and brain. Yet if psychological and neural mechanisms are responsible for all human behavior, how could we have conscious will? The feeling of conscious will, Wegner shows, helps us to appreciate and remember our authorship of the things our minds and bodies do. Yes, we feel that we consciously will our actions, Wegner says, but at the same time, our actions happen to us. Although conscious will is an illusion, it serves as a guide to understanding ourselves and to developing a sense of responsibility and morality.

- i***- (3)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI am very appreciative. The item is just what I was expecting, as based on the product information and the images provided. The seller went to great efforts to package the item with polystyrene inside, in addition to a sturdy parcel- all appreciated because of the product’s fragile nature. Product arrived well ahead of the predicted schedule by at least two weeks, and in ideal condition, just like new. It now adorns my desk and brings me delight. A great seller.
