SynopsisThe Dilemma of Determinism is a philosophical book written by the renowned American philosopher and psychologist, William James. In this book, James explores the concept of determinism - the idea that all events, including human actions, are ultimately determined by previous causes and cannot be altered. James argues that determinism creates a dilemma for human beings, as it seems to undermine our sense of free will and personal responsibility. He examines the various arguments for and against determinism, including those put forward by philosophers such as Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill. The book also delves into the implications of determinism for morality, religion, and psychology. James argues that while determinism may seem to threaten our sense of agency and accountability, it is ultimately compatible with a meaningful and ethical life. Overall, The Dilemma of Determinism is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of the most fundamental questions in philosophy. It is a must-read for anyone interested in free will, determinism, and the nature of human agency.THIS 46 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Will to Believe and Other Essays in Popular Philosophy, by William James.
