The author analyses the concept of free will in the context of the the psychophysical problem. After showing that the contemporary debate between compatibilists and incompatibilists is not of high relevance, he starts his analyses from specifying a solution to the psychophysical problem and then works towards a possible definition of free will.

The author analyses the concept of free will in the context of the psychophysical problem. He builds his analysis upon the presumption that the contemporary debate between compatibilists and incompatibilists is not of high relevance, since free will is a highly technical and vague term. So instead of directly answering questions like Is free will possible? or What is free will?, he starts his analyses from specifying a solution to the psychophysical problem and then works towards a possible definition of free will.
