Podcast:The Republican Professor Published On: Fri Jan 06 2023 Description: Dr. Garrett Pendergraft has a very subtle, sophisticated dry humor that he peppers into his academic writing, on display in his book on Free Will Puzzles. The book is called "Free Will and Human Agency: 50 Puzzles, Paradoxes, and Thought Experiments", part of the Puzzles, Paradoxes, and Thought Experiments in Philosophy Series published by Routledge Academic Press this year. You can find the book on Amazon . Please support your local book dealer. Garrett and I sample a smattering of cases from the book, and have a good time doing so. There's something here for the novice and expert alike, and everything in between for those with the intellectual virtue of curiosity and an attention span. The Republican Professor is a pro-getting-clear-about-Free-Will, pro-moral-responsibility, pro-puzzling-over-puzzles, pro-Philosophy-done-right, pro-subtle-and-sophisticated-sense-of-humor podcast. Therefore, welcome Dr. Garrett Pendergraft, Ph.D., Blanche E. Seaver Professor of Philosophy at Pepperdine University in Malibu, California. The Republican Professor is produced and hosted by Dr. Lucas J. Mather, Ph.D.
