Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Illuminating, uplifting and lighthearted, the third edition of THE MYTH OF FRE WIL expands on the powerful ideas in the first edition by offering 50 more pages of quotes and short essays on free will.

And it was written for people who understand that free will is a myth (the choir) and want to share this understanding with friends who might feel disturbed or intimidated by the subject.
