''The Human Will: Its Functions And Freedom'' is a philosophical treatise written by Thomas Hughes and published in 1867. The book explores the nature of human will, its functions, and its relationship with freedom. Hughes argues that the will is a fundamental aspect of human consciousness and that it is responsible for our ability to make choices and act upon them. He also discusses the ways in which the will can be influenced by external factors, such as social conditioning and personal experiences.Throughout the book, Hughes emphasizes the importance of free will and argues that it is essential for human dignity and moral responsibility. He examines various philosophical and theological perspectives on the nature of free will, including determinism and predestination, and offers his own insights into the debate.Overall, ''The Human Will: Its Functions And Freedom'' is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of the most fundamental aspects of human consciousness. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, psychology, or theology, and provides a valuable contribution to the ongoing discussion about the nature of free will and human agency.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
