The book explores the conflict between freedom and moral obligation, questioning how actions can be deemed morally obligatory if determinism or indeterminism negates control over them. The author argues that traditional compatibilist views fail to resolve this dilemma, asserting that moral obligation is incompatible with determinism but not with indeterminism. The conclusion posits that a deterministic world would lack meaningful moral appraisals, leading to a significant moral impoverishment. This thought-provoking analysis challenges conventional understandings of free will and ethics.
