Bobzien presents the definitive study of one of the most interesting intellectual legacies of the ancient Greeks: the Stoic theory of causal determinism. She explains what it was, how the Stoics justified it, and how it relates to their views on possibility, action, freedom, moral
responsibility, and many other topics. She demonstrates the considerable philosophical richness and power that these ideas retain today.
