“Just Deserts is a delight: a sharp and interesting discussion of punishment, morality, choice, and much else. It hits the sweet spot; it’s wonderfully clear and accessible – perfect for a newcomer to the free will debates – but also deep and subtle, with plenty to engage experts in the field.”
Paul Bloom, Brooks and Suzanne Ragen Professor of Psychology, Yale University, and author of Against Empathy
“What it means to make a choice, to deserve praise or blame, to do the right thing – these are all at stake in the debate over free will. Here you will find two different viewpoints, elaborated and defended by true masters. Given the sharpness of both interlocutors, neither has anywhere to hide; a wide spectrum of important points is laid out for careful consideration.”
Sean Carroll, author of The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself
“This is a very lively, engaging, and thoughtful debate between two well-informed and insightful philosophers. It is written in a very accessible style, and students and even scholars in other disciplines or sub-fields of philosophy will learn from it and find themselves drawn in. It does not just re-hash traditional debates, but pushes the frontiers outward. Highly recommended.”
John Martin Fischer, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at UC Riverside
“A philosophical debate in the grand style. Caruso and Dennett play in the philosophical equivalent of a three set tennis championship where the prize is whether free will exists or not and what this means for reward, punishment, and the criminal law. Serve, volley, amazing gets, overheads, long rallies, a few trick shots, several match points. Really smart play from two philosophers at the top of their games.”
