The sole liberty people possess, in Edwards’s view, is the liberty that 'I can do, if I will.' Yet the will, Edwards concluded in this treatise, is not free; it is determined by motives toward 'apparent good' or 'that which is agreeable.' So long as people can do what they will to do, Edwards argued, they are free. Freedom of the Will was a complicated treatise for complicated philosophical times.". Good/No Jacket.
