’Glannon's book is distinctive in that he brings together disparate literatures in an illuminating way. The scope of the book includes cutting edge debates about the metaphysics of free will and moral responsibility, but these are framed by the insights of psychological theory and the law. Glannon helpfully highlights the interdisciplinary nature of these problems in this fine book.’ John Martin Fischer, University of California, USA 'A strong appeal of Glannon's well-organized work is the way in which it brings together literature on free will and responsibility, legal cases, and abnormal psychology, neurology, and psychiatry. His rich and subtle discussion of the mental basis of responsibility merits careful scrutiny by anyone interested in moral responsibility or criminal liability.' The Journal of Value Inquiry
