Potentiality: From Dispositions to Modality - Oxford Philosophical Monographs
Vetter, Barbara (, Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin)
Individual objects have potentials: paper has the potential to burn; an acorn has the potential to turn into a tree. Barbara Vetter investigates the metaphysics of such potentials, and develops a dispositionalist view of metaphysical modality which takes account of contemporary developments in metaphysics, logic, and semantics.
