Reviews
Since the Rievet and Heines experiments, a lively discussion has been made, and the criticism is very intense. A book like this. You've done a great job of translating it. Thank you for publishing the book. The criticism is very good, but his conclusion is inadequate. In particular, the translation was fortunate to have six footnotes on the six pages of the book, which would have been a disaster, but it worked well.
It's interesting to see the balance between the analysis of the scientific experiment and the author's criticism of free will arguments.
There are claims that recent scientific studies (especially neuroscience and social psychology) have proved that free will does not exist, and the book argues that they cannot prove that it doesn't exist.
Alfred R. Milly: Free Will and Science
Is there free will? Or is it just a fantasy? The development of neuroscience and psychology in the late 20th century has led to a surge of research into human brains and behaviors, leading to recent acceptance of the claim that free will does not exist in science. Alfred Millie, a famous philosopher in the Anglo-American Philosophy community for his studies of human behavior and free will, analyzed experiments that scientists, including the famous Benjamin Livet experiment in this book, claim to have proved that there is no free will and convincingly showed that they failed to prove the lack of free will. The author's argument in this book does not provide conclusive evidence of the existence of free will, which is defined in a certain way. But when discussing why modern science's achievements are not yet proof of free will, we have an insight into not only the technical limits that modern science can provide to us today but also what evidence is able to determine the answers to the question of free- will.
