Beschreibung:
Many philosophers have argued that free will may be no more thana flattering illusion. Few have gone on, however, to spell out what lifewould be like without that illusion. In The Spontaneous Self Dr. Breerexplores the many ways in which our everyday experience is likely to beaffected by giving up a belief in free will. Topics include guilt, pride, credit,blame, ambition, fear, identity, power, and love. His analysis of what westand to gain and lose by changing our beliefs draws upon the results ofan eight-year attempt to dispel the illusion of free will in his own life. TheSpontaneous Self describes the cognitive-emotional techniques he devisedfor uprooting the illusion of free will and the personal transformation thatfollowed when he put those techniques into practice.
