FREE WILL

Book ID/图书代码: 10963011B44393

English Summary/英文概要: What is free will? Why is it important? Can the same act be both free and determined? Is free will necessary for moral responsibility? Does anyone have free will, and if not, how is creativity possible and how can anyone be praised or blamed for anything?

These are just some of the questions considered by Joseph Keim Campbell in this lively and accessible introduction to the concept of free will. Using a range of engaging examples the book introduces the problems, arguments, and theories surrounding free will. Beginning with a discussion of fatalism and causal determinism, the book goes on to focus on the metaphysics of moral responsibility, free will skepticism, and skepticism about moral responsibility. Campbell shows that no matter how we look at it, free will is problematic. Thankfully there are a plethora of solutions on offer and the best of these are considered in full in the final chapter on contemporary theories of free will. This includes a rigorous account of libertarianism, compatabilism, and naturalism.

Free Will is the ideal introduction to the topic and will be a valuable resource for scholars and students seeking to understand the importance and relevance of the concept for contemporary philosophy.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 什么是自由意志?它重要吗?同样的行为是如何不受约束和确认的?不受约束是道德责任必要的因素吗?有人拥有自由意志吗,如果没有,创造力是如何应用的,人们是如何被称赞或指责的?

这些只是 Joseph Keim Campbell在这本生动易懂的自由意志指南中涉及的一部分问题。书中运用一些生动的事例,围绕自由意志对问题,论点和理论展开了介绍。从对宿命论和因果决定论的讨论开始,随后本书把重点放在道德责任,自由意志怀疑论,以及道德责任怀疑论上。

Campbell 告诉我们,无论我们如何看待它,自由意志都是存在疑问的。幸好有许多解决方案,而且这些被认为是最好的方案被写入了最后一章的自由意志理论中。其中包括严格的自由主义,相容论,与自然主义。

《自由意志》一书是这一话题理想的指导书,对于学者和寻求理解这一哲学理论价值和关联的学生来说,也是一种宝贵的资源。(兼职翻译-PXD)
