Inhaltsangabe
Daniel C. Dennett's Freedom Evolves tackles the most important question of human existence - is there really such a thing as free will?
How can humans make genuinely independent choices if we are just a cluster of cells and genes in a world determined by scientific laws?
Here, Daniel Dennett provides an impassioned defense of free will. But rather than freedom being an eternal, unchanging condition of our existence, in reality, he reveals, it has evolved: just like life on the planet and the air we breathe. Evolution is the key to resolving this greatest of philosophical questions - and to understanding our place in the world as uniquely free agents.
Dennett shows that far from there being an incompatibility between contemporary science and the traditional vision of freedom and morality, it is only recently that science has advanced to the point where we can see how we came to have our unique kind of freedom.
'A serious book with a brilliant message'

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En 'Freedom Evolves', Daniel C. Dennett aborda la pregunta fundamental de la existencia humana: ¿existe realmente el libre albedrío? ¿Cómo pueden los humanos tomar decisiones genuinamente independientes si somos solo un conjunto de células y genes en un mundo determinado por leyes científicas? En este libro, Dennett ofrece una defensa apasionada del libre albedrío, revelando que, en realidad, ha evolucionado, al igual que la vida en el planeta y el aire que respiramos. La evolución es la clave para resolver esta gran cuestión filosófica y para comprender nuestro lugar en el mundo como agentes libres únicos.
