Daniel Wegner's claims to have disproved dualism and free will?

What do you think of Harvard Psycology professor Daniel Wegner's claims to have disproved dualism and free will?

In short, confused nonsense. You might as well claim show that music is an illusion because if you drill a hole in a violin it makes a different sound.
With the extra confusion that you cannot have an illusion unless you have a will to be deluded.
But this sort of thing sells books and certain people (who seem to think they lack free will) lap it up.
