- Free will : a very short introduction / by Pink, Thomas.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 124-129) and index.List of illustrations -- 1: Free will problem -- 2: Freedom as free will -- 3: Reason -- 4: Nature -- 5: Morality without freedom? -- 6: Scepticism about libertarian freedom -- 7: Self-determination and the will -- 8: Freedom and its place in nature -- References -- Further reading -- Index.From the Publisher: Every day we seem to make and act upon all kinds of choices: some trivial, others so consequential that they change the course of one's life, or even the course of history. But are these choices really free, or are we compelled to act the way we do by factors beyond our control? Is the feeling that we could have made different decisions just an illusion? And if our choices are not free, is it legitimate to hold people morally responsible for their actions? Thomas Pink looks at the fundamental philosophical question of free will, critically examining the claim: If our actions are causally determined by events beyond our control that means that we can never act freely, and so can never be held responsible for our actions.

The Pope as sex monitor ; Male god ; "Right to life" -- V. The coming and going of confession. The duty to forgive -- Epilogue: The future : a Church of surprises.Garry Wills, the prizewinning historian, argues that changes have been the evidence of life in the Catholic Church. It has often changed, sometimes with bad consequences, more often with good, good enough to make it perdure. In this brilliant and incisive study, he gives seven examples of deep and serious changes that have taken place (or are taking place) within the last century. None of them was effected by the pope all by himself. As Wills contends, it is only by examining the history of the Church that we can understand Pope Francis's and the Church's challenges, and, as history shows, any changes that meet those challenges will have impact only if the Church, the people of God, support them. In reading the Church's history, Wills considers the lessons Pope Francis seems to have learned. The challenge that Pope Francis offers the Church is its ability to undertake new spiritual adventures, making it a poor church for the poor, after the example of Jesus.
