Author Description

For most of history, humans have either taken Freewill or sung its praises. We always assume we control our thoughts and that our thoughts control our actions. But what if we're wrong? Based on is the argument of Ahmad Safavy, who employs current scientific principles - from the Big Bang to the systematic formation of atoms, molecules, and the living world, to quantum mechanics and chaos theory - to question how molecular action could affect everything including our genetics, our decision-making processes, and our daily lives. While targeting the general readership, this book may be used as a compact but rich source of scientific and philosophical information by the students of these fields. It may be particularly useful to philosophy students with no or limited science background and students of non-scientific disciplines. Do we have Freewill? If not, what is occurring when we make a decision and act on it?
