Beschreibung
Lowe defends a common-sense view of ourselves as free agents, capable of bringing about changes in the world through the choices we make, rather than being caused to act as we do by factors external to our will. He demonstrates many weaknesses of the materialist conception of the human mind and its powers that is dominant in Western philosophy.
