The Will to Doubt
''The Will to Doubt: An Essay in Philosophy for the General Thinker'' is a book published in 1907 by University of Michigan professor Alfred Henry Lloyd. Professor Lloyd would later become interim President of the University of Michigan in 1925.
==Thesis==
''The Will to Doubt'' was Lloyd's fourth book and was published as a volume in the Ethical Library Series. The book was a response to William James' 1896 collection of essays titled ''The Will to Believe''. Professor Lloyd's simple thesis is that "doubt is essential to real belief".〔(''The Will to Doubt'' ). London: Swan Sonnenschein & Co., 1907, p. ix〕 He wrote at the beginning of the 20th century, in what he called an age of doubt:
"We would often hide it from others, not to say from ourselves, but it is there, and we all know it to be there.〔''Will to Doubt'', p. 1〕 Though many fear doubt, and try to keep it hidden and locked away, the confession of doubt is in fact the beginning of philosophy".〔''Will to Doubt'', p. 2〕
