Tomis Kapitan (1949–2016) was an American philosopher and Distinguished Teaching Professor Emeritus at Northern Illinois University.[1][2][3] He worked primarily in metaphysics and philosophy of language. Kapitan was especially interested in the free will debate, where he was a "compatibilist," defending the view that free will is possible even in a completely deterministic universe. He also published in philosophy of religion and wrote extensively on the Palestine-Israeli conflict.
