Recenzii

"The book is a most valuable companion to primary texts. Clatterbaugh writes transparently and with impressive economy. Because he gets down to business and has a lot to say about each of the figures as well as the grander picture, there will be many useful points of discussion arising from the text. The author has done a genuine service to both students and researchers." -- John M. Nicholas, The University of Western Ontario
"...insigntful, provocative, and worthy of recommendation." -- Teaching Philosophy
"...an excellent introduction to the debate in early modern philosophy over the metaphysics and epistemology of causation, particularly on the nature of the interactions between body, mind, and God." -- Philosophy in Review
