The Morphine Diaries - the true story of a father's morphine fuelled experience following a twelve-hour life-saving operation. Documented by both his daughter, Laura-Louise, and her father himself. This is their testimony looking back from the light at the end of the tunnel. David only just made it through the emergency open heart surgery, which saw him flat-line and be brought back to life. The two weeks he spent in intensive care recovering just before Christmas 2013, were a roller coaster - with no safety harness. His youngest daughter, Laura-Louise, began anonymously blogging about the sometimes hilarious, often hellish - out of this world - experiences her father went through. Heavy doses of morphine were required to keep the pain at bay and this affected David's mind in an unprecedented way. A year later, one winter's night, David asked to read his daughter's words. Those hours were spent laughing and crying about the turbulent black hole the family had been in just a year before... "I remember it vividly," said David... "But I had no idea what was really going on..." David started to document his version of these trips and the deeper, darker parallel universe he was living in during this time. The result is a fascinating story of a fight for survival told from two sides - the survivor's and the family's.

''Plain'' persons tend to accept that free will exists and is inconsistent with determinism, but this commonsense position is widely debunked by professional philosophers and cognitive scientists. In this special issue of the Journal of Consciousness Studies David Hodgson defends a simple, robust account of the plain person''s position on free will, and intends it to support equally robust views of personal responsibility for conduct. In a lively debate his ideas are discussed and challenged by ten philosophers and scientists of varying opinions, including Robert Kane, Henry Stapp, and veteran philosopher of mind J.J.C. Smart, with a response by the principal author.
