Ebook: Is science compatible with free will?: exploring free will and consciousness in the light of quantum physics and neuroscience

"One of the first books to discuss, at the same time, the implications of quantum physics, Libet's experiments and the neurophysiological finding of mirror neurons Uses scientific data as a basis for drawing philosophical implications. Contains interdisciplinary contributions from neuroscientists, quantum physicists, and free-will philosophers. There is a perceived conflict within the scientific community between the conviction that a human being has free will on one hand, and deterministic physics and neuroscience on the other. When faced with this conflict, two alternative positions are possible: either human freedom is an illusion, or deterministic science is not the last word on the brain and will eventually be superseded by a neuroscience that admits processes not completely determined by the past."--Publisher's website.
