Mind, Brain, and Free Will
Richard Swinburne
Reviews and Awards
"This book displays Swinburne s philosophical prowess, containing rigorous but accessible treatments of metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of science, and philosophy of mind. Swinburne does not exclude the lay reader, accessibly but skillfully handling complicated topics like quantum physics relationship to neuroscience. This book is the premier contemporary defense of mind-body dualism and recommended for advanced undergraduates, graduates, and interested lay readers alike."--Religious Studies Review
"Mind, Brain, and the Free Will is the latest in a prolific list of titles from the pen of Richard Swinburne, raising a host of fascinating issues, and there is a fair amount of thought provoking textual analysis in it."--Review of Contemporary Philosophy
"This is an interesting and provocative book."--David Palmer, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
"Swinburne's philosophical system certainly gives us much to think about. Even if one disagrees with Swinburne's conclusions, it is a task to locate which premise is mistaken and to clearly explain why. Swinburne's latest book makes it even more difficult to resist his views about the nature of human beings." -- Journal of Analytic Theology
