"Campbell's Free Will is remarkable: it is an efficient
but impressively thorough treatment of the rich collection of
issues that arise in contemporary philosophical work on free
will."
Manuel Vargas, University of San Francisco
"This is an excellent book. It is a very comprehensive - and yet
highly accessible - overview of the contemporary literature on free
will. Reading this work would be an ideal way of getting up to
speed on this lively and exciting sub-field of philosophy. Joseph
Campbell knows his stuff, and he is an outstanding guide to the
debates about free will that engage so many contemporary
philosophers. Highly recommended."
John Fischer, University of California, Riverside
"An informed and engaging introduction to the free will problem
which explains some of the more complex and important current
debates about free will in clear and understandable terms without
sacrificing rigor of argument."
Robert Kane, University of Texas at Austin
