Broad's essay on "Determinism, Indeterminism, and Libertarianism" in "Ethics and the History of Philosophy" in 1952 introduced the philosophical terms "occurrent causation" and "non-occurrent causation", which became the basis for today's "agent causal" and "event causal" distinctions in the debates on Libertarian Free Will.
