For readers familiar with Kant's thought, Kielkopf (philosophy, Ohio State U.) revises William James' pattern of pragmatic argument to defend contra-causal free will in the form of Kantian moral autonomy, which allows people to choose what they ought regardless of any contrary inclinations. He explores such facets of the issue as taking James' will to believe seriously, orientation in natural theology, and mechanism as a cognitive artifact.
