Investigating issues from eternity to free will and from body to natural laws, the essays uncover long- neglected perspectives and demonstrate their importance for philosophical debates, both then and now. Combining careful philosophical analysis with discussion of the intellectual and historical context of each thinker, they will set the agenda for future enquiry and will appeal to scholars and students of the history of metaphysics, science, religion and feminism"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women philosophers. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85147672 650 0 $a Metaphysics. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85084286 650 0 $a Philosophy, Modern $y 17th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85100961 650 0 $a Philosophy, Modern $y 18th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85100962 650 7 $a Metaphysics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01018304 650 7 $a Philosophy, Modern. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061071 650 7 $a Women philosophers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178286 650 7 $a Metaphysik. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Philosophin. $2 gnd 648 7 $a 1600-1799 $2 fast 700 1 $a Thomas, Emily, $d 1985- $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2018012536 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781316836255 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214014920.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AB001DB61E3F11EAA58222FC96128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
