Behavior is the result of a process rather than choice. This theory, "procirclism" is what the author explores in the book. Readers interested in human psychology will revel in the author's thoughts.

This review sounds so educative. It's totally a different line of thought for me. Thanks for explaining the term "Procirclism". Congrats on being the BOTD.

Procircling is an interesting concept. This is the first time I've heard about it and I'm curious if I could apply it to my life. I added it to my to-read list. Congratulations to the author on #BOTD!

"Procirclism," seems to be an interesting concept to discuss the question, "whether humans have will power?" Albertus Kral's creativity in writing this, what appears to be groundbreaking work, is commendable. Your review has so well captured the spirit of the author's point of the view.

This book seems to constitute, in one word, a sharp blow to rigid psyches. This review had more than I needed to mark this book as my kind of book.

Free Will, Do You Have It?—well, not sure, but I do want something: reading this book, and fast; even if I have a will to bend. :tiphat:

We learn every day. Procirclism - that's a new word for me. Like everything on earth, the free will man has is only relative, and never absolute. I don't know if that is what procirclism is intending to affirm. Thanks for a great review.

This book may just question almost all my personal views yet, I'm ready to get a dose of a different perspective. Procirclism seems to be an interesting concept to decipher and would be glad to read it and learn further.

Free will, do we have it? Yes and no, perhaps on the circumstances and what we candidly define it as.

Alright, this indeed is new and complicated. My perception of free will is different, but I am willing to read and try to understand this “Procirclism” The review makes science key in this concept. It indicates that it is an easy to read book so congratulations!

This book is a little tough for me. I do feel that a lot of our behavior is due to choice. Nevertheless congratulations on book of the day!

The book seems to be a thought provoking work by the author illustrating that our choices are the result of processes done in the brain after taking many things in account. We might not be aware of it as it happens quickly in a lightening speed. The review has also brought out these things very nicely. Thanks for a well made review.
