Most frequently cited free will monographs published between 1980-2005

Partly as a reaction to Kevin's post below, and partly out of perversity, I assembled a list monographs on free will that received 30 or more citations according to Google Scholar. In order to constrain the search, I looked only at books published between 1980 and 2005. I also threw out any book that wasn't a philosophy book and any book that was not centrally preoccupied with free will and/or moral responsibility.

Titles were gotten by trolling the bibliography of the Oxford Handbook of Free Will, and one or two other more recent books near my computer. I did not include anthologies or collections of papers, so influential philosophers who haven't written monographs on free will don't show up. I used 2005 as an arbitrary cutoff date, mainly because any books published since then will not have anything remotely like a representative citation impact given how long it takes reviews, responses, and the like to make it into print. Sure enough, newer books generally fared worse than books that have been out for 10 years or so, so bear that in mind as you look at the results below. Also, keep in mind that Google Scholar is far from perfect. In some cases, it splits references to the same book into several entries, and I surely failed to notice all such instances and to adjust citation counts accordingly. In other cases, it likely collapsed some citations for an article into a book with the same name. And, of course, I strongly doubt that Google Scholar perfectly captures all citations published in philosophy journals. 

If you think I missed something, please look up said author/volume in Google Scholar and verify that it has more than 30 citations. If it does, please post the correction below.

With no further ado, the results are below for your viewing pleasure. Please enjoy with a pinch of salt.

Comments

[Martin Muller]

You missed: Bieri: Handwerk der Freiheit 159* (It's not translated into English yet)

[Justin Coates]

Mele, Free Will and Luck (2006): 58
Flint, Divine Providence (1998): 46
Darwall, The Second-Person Standpoint (2006): 37

Obviously, two of these books were published after 2005, but nevertheless, they've already made an impact worth noting.

Thanks Martin and Justin for the additions.

I don't know the Bieri book at all, but with that many citations I imagine it is worth checking out (once it appears in a language I can read!).
