This book presents a speculative philosophy, based on physics and neurophysiology, which offers explanations of how will is possible in a world described by physical laws. There is a history of similar attempts by scientists and philosophers that are also reviewed in this book. All of the proposals have to do with how quantum mechanics, and in particular the uncertainty principle, might operate in the human brain to provide a physical basis for human will.
"This is a fascinating effort at synthesis. Students of physics and philosophy will find in it a provocative proposal for a physical basis of will." (John J. Compton, Vanderbilt University Nahville, Tennessee)
"Allan Harkavy offers an exciting and challenging perspective upon physics and God in øthis book!. Dr. Harkavy finds that human will is a recapitulation of an intrinsic cosmic will, the locus of which is on the quantum mechanical plane.... However one ponders the spiritual side to this thinking, the book certainly offers much food for thought." (Rabbi William M. Strongin, Congregation Ahavath Achim, New Paltz, New York)
