Milič Čapek

Milič Čapek (26. jaanuar 1909 Třebechovice pod Orebem – 17. november 1997 Little Rock) oli tšehhi päritolu USA filosoof.

Čapekit mõjutas suuresti Henri Bergsoni protsessifilosoofia ja vähemal määral Alfred North Whitehead. Suur osa tema tööst keskendus filosoofia ja tänapäeva füüsika seostele, eriti aja ja ruumi filosoofias ning metafüüsikas.
