1. agent

   In strict philosophical usage, the prime mover or doer of an act is the agent. Thus we speak of man as a voluntary agent, a free agent. But in common usage, especially in business, an agent is not the prime actor, but only an instrument or factor, acting under orders or instructions. Compare CAUSE.

   Synonyms:
   actor, doer, factor, instrument, means, mover, operator, performer, promoter

   Antonyms:
   chief, inventor, originator, principal

   Preposition:
   An agent of the company for selling, etc.
