Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Freedom And Causality In Their Ethical Aspects: With An Introduction (1915) by James Robert Howerton is a philosophical work that explores the concepts of freedom and causality in relation to ethics. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part examining the nature of freedom and its relationship to moral responsibility, while the second part focuses on the concept of causality and its role in ethical decision-making.In the introduction, Howerton sets out his argument that freedom and causality are not mutually exclusive concepts, but rather, they are interconnected and interdependent. He argues that a proper understanding of the relationship between these two concepts is essential for developing a coherent ethical framework.In the first part of the book, Howerton explores the nature of freedom and its relationship to moral responsibility. He argues that freedom is not an absolute concept, but rather, it is a matter of degree. He also examines the various factors that can limit an individual's freedom, such as social conditioning and psychological factors.In the second part of the book, Howerton focuses on the concept of causality and its role in ethical decision-making. He argues that causality is an essential component of ethical reasoning, as it allows us to understand the consequences of our actions and make informed decisions about how to act.Overall, Freedom And Causality In Their Ethical Aspects: With An Introduction (1915) is a thought-provoking work that offers a nuanced exploration of the complex relationship between freedom, causality, and ethics. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, ethics, or moral theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
