Synopsis
Many philosophers maintain that determinism is incompatible with true freedom, while others believe that it represents no threat to our freedom.
Ted Honderich argues that there are strong reasons to think both positions wrong. Developing from where his earlier work left off, he considers a new and more difficult problem of determinism: it too can lead to the thought that we are unfree but morally responsible.
