Causation and Laws of Nature

<p>This is the first English translation of <em>Causalite´ et Lois de La Nature</em> and is an important contribution to the theory of causation<em>.</em> Max Kistler reconstructs a unified concept of causation that is general enough to adequately deal with both elementary physical processes and the macroscopic level of phenomena we encounter in everyday life.</p><p>This book will be of great interest to philosophers of science and metaphysics and also to students and scholars of philosophy of mind where concepts of causation and law play a prominent role.</p>
