The contributors to this volume examine these theories in their philosophical and historical context. They address them both as a means for answering specific questions regarding causal relations and in their relation to one another, in particular, comparing occasionalism and the preestablished harmony as responses to Descartes's metaphysics and physics and the Cartesian account of causation. Philosophers discussed include Descartes, Gassendi, Malebranche, Arnauld, Leibniz, Bayle, La Forge, and other, less well-known figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSteven Nadler is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and author of \u003ci\u003eMalebranche and Ideas \u003c\/i\u003e(1992), \u003ci\u003e Arnauld and the Cartesian Philosophy of Ideas\u003c\/i\u003e (1989), and editor of \u003ci\u003eMalebranche: Philosophical Selections \u003c\/i\u003e(1992).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.54 x 9 x 6.48 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 15, 1993\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754097803552,"sku":"9780271026572","price":73.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/7c0b923c6999b22493c8a8933f32d1a4.webp?v=1780033374","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/causation-in-early-modern-philosophy-cartesianism-occasionalism-and-preestablished-harmony-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
