Recenzii
'Bauer's monograph marks a significant and original contribution to the rapidly expanding literature on dispositionalism. Well-informed, clearly written, and composed with an eye to interdisciplinary linkages (for instance to information theory and philosophy of religion), this work deserves a wide audience across multiple philosophical sub-disciplines.' Travis Dumsday, Concordia University
