To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is not singular, for we see many analogies to it, in the history of mind. The leading points in the free will argument may be stated thus : We never act, except upon motive, and upon the strongest motive at the time of acting. If this were all, it would be plain that the will is subordinate to the strongest motive and hence is not free. But there is another element to be taken into account — reason. By our reason we can delay choice, and thus en- able a weaker motive to obtain strength and... finally to become the strongest and determine action. This process is called dclibcra- H tioii and it is this that makes the will free. Bvit it is to be care- fully noted that this is not a lawless freedom, but a freedom, in accordance with the laws of reason.
Sec. io. Necessitarianism. — This doctrine is that man is tree to act as he chooses, but is not free to choose as he chooses.
