Default Free Will. Help!

I'm in serious need of a refresher course on the basics of the philosophy of free will. What are the major arguments on this topic? What did major philosophers have to say about it? I did a google search on the subject and found about 10,000 web sites I could read. But what I really need is the Reader's Digest version, something I could absorb in an hour or two that still presents a broad perspective on the subject. Could you gentlemen and gentleladies point me in the right direction? MANY THANKS!
