Who's in Charge?

by Michael S. Gazzaniga Author

This thought-provoking work explores the complex relationship between the brain, decision-making, and free will. It challenges the conventional idea that we consciously control our actions, proposing instead that our decisions begin before we are aware of them. The author reframes the debate on free will, suggesting the issue is not whether we can make choices, but whether we can be held accountable for actions driven by unconscious processes. By examining how the mind interacts with the brain, the work delves into the ethical and legal consequences of these findings. It offers a fresh perspective on human behavior, blending neuroscience, psychology, and ethics with profound implications for how we understand responsibility.
