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.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. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in contemporary philosophy ;$v2. 606 $aCausation 606 $aPhilosophy of nature 615 0$aCausation. 615 0$aPhilosophy of nature. 676 $a122 686 $a5,1$2ssgn 686 $aCC 3200$2rvk 700 $aKistler$b Max$0732673 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765846403321 996 $aCausation and laws of nature$92948572 997 $aUNINA
