John Searle's "Rationality in Action" is pretty good.
Also, The Teaching Company has a really excellent course called:
Great Philosophical Debates: Free Will and Determinism
Taught by Shaun Nichols Ph.D.

Awesome, thanks. I'm working on a paper discussing causality, necessity, and determinism for a philosophy class. So using theological (which is most of my experience in the issue) sources isn't really helpful, since the issue of free-will in theology takes on a slightly different tone. | | Back to Top | | |

The best contemporary philosophical introduction to the classical free will discussion is Robert Kane's (2005), A Contemporary Introduction to Free Will. Oxford UP. | | Back to Top | | |
