Time and Free Will: An Essay on the Immediate Data of Consciousness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162564395)

Time and Free Will: An Essay on the Immediate Data of Consciousness by Henri Bergson is a philosophical work that explores the nature of time and human consciousness. The book argues that the traditional ways of understanding time as a linear, measurable concept are inadequate and that a more intuitive, subjective understanding of time is necessary to fully grasp the nature of human experience. Bergson also argues that free will is a fundamental aspect of human consciousness and that it cannot be reduced to deterministic, mechanistic explanations. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in philosophy, psychology, or the nature of human experience. Overall, Time and Free Will is a groundbreaking work that challenges traditional assumptions about time and consciousness and offers a new perspective on these fundamental aspects of human existence.1913.
