Reviews

[Roger's] presentation of Anselmian libertarianism offers a new position in current free will debates that will be long debated. It has been widely recognized as a significant contribution, and vigorously engaged. * Ben Novak, Review of Metaphysics * This will very likely help structure the ongoing discussion and promote future progress towards the goal of deepening our understanding of the medieval debate on free will and its importance in relation to contemporary issues in metaphysics. * Tomas Ekenberg, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Online *
