Dispositions [Book Review]
Philosophical Review 110 (1):82-84 (2001)
Abstract
With the possible exception of causation, disposition concepts are as prevalent in ordinary thought as any of the nomic concepts. Progress on their nature has been hard to come by. No doubt the difficulty of saying anything illuminating and suitably general about their nature is a function of their pervasiveness.Author's Profile
