Notes	First published in 1968 by Methuen & Co Ltd Includes bibliographical references (pages 181-182) and index chapter 1 Introduction -- chapter 2 Probability And Possibility For Choice -- chapter 3 Probability And Natural Powers -- chapter 4 Some Unobservable Properties -- chapter 5 Some Puzzles About Potentiality -- chapter 6 The Powers Of People Andthe Powers Of Things -- chapter 7 IFS And Cans -- chapter 8 Deliberation, Freedom And Meaning "Perhaps everyone who can think has the concept of possibility, but no one understands it. The metaphysical theory of Determinism is a symptom of this lack of understanding, and the inconclusiveness of its opponents'; arguments indicates that the lack is universal. In this book, first published in 1968, the author shows that there are a number of different kinds on non-logical possibility, subtly interrelated, each requiring separate explanation. An original contribution to the subject, it is essential reading for all students of philosophy."--Provided by publisher HTTP:URL=https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781315188706 Pub. note=Click here to view.
