概要 Professors of philosophy in the U.S., the U.K., and Australia are the contributors to this fine resource, which presents 37 chapters on the history and current status of causation in many fields. Earl... chapters describe the history of the concept from classical Greece through the Logical Empiricists, then present the standard approaches of regularity, counterfactual, probabilistic, causal process, and agency; and interventionist theories. Alternative approaches, including causal modelling, mechanisms, and causal pluralism, are followed by metaphysical ones, with a chapter on platitudes and counterexamples, by Peter Menzies (Macquarie U., Sydney, Australia), and three chapters on the epistemology of the concept, with chapters on the psychology of causal perception and reasoning, and on causation and observation. The volume concludes by considering causation in conjunction with philosophical theories--including ethics and semantic content--and with other disciplines, including biology, physics, social sciences, and the law. Each chapter surveys each field's main proponents, its controversies, and current trends, and concludes with a bibliography, making this the perfect reference for both professionals and students.
