Free Will by Sam Harris Summary
Overview of Free Will
In "Free Will," Sam Harris demolishes our cherished illusion of choice in just 49 powerful pages. Endorsed by Oliver Sacks yet debated by Daniel Dennett, this mind-bending exploration reveals why acknowledging our lack of free will paradoxically leads to greater compassion.

You Didn't Choose to Read This
A man walks into a convenience store and shoots the clerk. Another man, same age, same neighborhood, walks past that same store and heads home to his family. We call one evil, the other decent. We build our entire moral universe on this difference. But what if the gap between them is nothing more than luck-a few different neurons firing, a childhood memory surfacing at the wrong moment, a genetic variant they never chose? What if the conscious "you" making decisions right now is no more real than a shadow cast by processes you'll never see or control? This isn't philosophy for its own sake. This is about everything: how we punish criminals, reward success, love and hate, forgive and condemn. And the evidence is now overwhelming-the self you think is steering your life is actually just along for the ride.
