Details about Causation, Freedom and Determinism: An Attempt to Solve the Causal Problem Through a Study of its Origins in Seventeenth-Century Philosophy Routledge Library Editions: Free Will and Determinism:

The historical study discloses an ambiguity in the meanings of causation and determinism; it discloses also that this ambiguity is transferred to the meaning of freedom.

The student/teacher relationship does not stop when class ends, and parents particularly have appreciated the care I take to promote student success in and outside the classroom. Most of my students have an eye toward either politics, the law, or teaching upon graduating college. Read more
