Bad Philosophy Questions!

1. Where will you answer this question so I can hear a response if possible. 2. Can you go into the classic concept of akrasia eg "weakness of will" and how our understanding of that concept has evolved with access to the fields of neuroscience, psychoanalysis, etc. With a particular focus on the topic of free will and how perhaps it is or isn't an outmoded concept. 3.

This book isn't just about winning debates; it's about understanding the deeper layers of logical reasoning, emotional intelligence, and ethical persuasion that can transform how we communicate and influence others.
