Sobre IBD

''A New View of Causation'' is a philosophical treatise written by Thomas Squire Barrett in 1871. The book presents a new perspective on the concept of causation, challenging traditional notions of causality as a necessary connection between cause and effect. Barrett argues that causation is not a fixed and immutable relationship, but rather a subjective interpretation of events based on our limited understanding of the world. He proposes that causation should be viewed as a probabilistic relationship, where events are influenced by a multitude of factors and outcomes are not predetermined. The book also delves into the implications of this new view of causation for various fields, including science, ethics, and metaphysics. Overall, ''A New View of Causation'' is a thought-provoking and insightful work that offers a fresh perspective on one of the most fundamental concepts in philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
