Title: Dialectics of the will
Description: "John H. Smith reexamines the will in terms of the philosophical debates that began in the seventeenth century. He looks at the act of willing as existing in a domain of contradictions, such as freedom and determinism and unity and fragmentation, to explain how we can be considered free beings. Dialectics of the Will thus develops a new model of human agency by analyzing modern and postmodern theory in Germany and France.".

"Dialectics of the Will is a study that will interest feminist and gender theorists as well as students and scholars of German philosophy, critical theory, and intellectual history."--BOOK JACKET.
