Almost a century ago, Bertrand Russell called the law of causality 'a relic of a bygone age'. In this important collection 13 leading scholars revisit Russell's revolutionary conclusion, discussing one of the most significant and puzzling issues in contemporary thought. - ;In philosophy as in ordinary life, cause and effect are twin pillars on which much of our thought seems based. But almost a century ago, Bertrand Russell declared that modern physics leaves these pillars witho 606 $aCausation$vCongresses 615 0$aCausation 676 $a122 686 $a02.02$2bcl 701 $aPrice$b Huw$f1953-$0729145 701 $aCorry$b Richard$01562174 712 02$aUniversity of Sydney.$bCentre for Time. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784516003321 996 $aCausation, physics, and the constitution of reality$93829570 997 $aUNINA
