Meer over het boek
The book presents a compelling argument that scientific determinism does not undermine human free will, as it merely describes rather than prescribes. It asserts that the development and validation of scientific theories inherently rely on the existence of free will, viewing individuals as fundamental entities. Drawing from Humean and Kantian perspectives, it defends scientific realism while clarifying that scientific frameworks cannot dictate moral norms or actions for individuals or society. This exploration challenges the conflation of scientific fact with prescriptive authority.
