Social psychologist Daniel M. Wegner is a professor of psychology at Harvard University and a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He is best known for his work on mental control (e.g., thought suppression) and conscious will, though he has also published on transactive memory, action identification, and various areas of social cognition. His latest book, The Illusion of Conscious Will, tackles the long-debated notion of free will through the scope of experimental psychology. Wegner's ideas have sparked great interest among psychologists, neuroscientists, theologians, and philosophers interested in the nature of consciousness and freedom of action.
