William James' celebrated lecture on "The Will to Believe" has
kindled spirited controversy since the day it was delivered. In
this lively reappraisal of that controversy, Father O'Connell
contributes some fresh contentions: that James' argument should be
viewed against his indebtedness to Pascal and Renouvier; that it
works primarily to validate our "over-beliefs" ; and most
surprising perhaps, that James envisages our "passional nature" as
intervening, not after, but before and throughout, our intellectual
weighing of the evidence for belief.
