The book engages some of the relevant literature from other disciplines, as Woodward weaves together examples, counterexamples, criticisms, defenses, objections, and replies into a convincing defense of the core of his theory, which is that we can analyze causation by appeal to the notion of manipulation.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 230mmItem Length: 153mmItem Width: 25mmItem Weight: 618gAuthor: James WoodwardGenre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Oxford Studies in Philosophy of ScienceType: PhilosophyTopic: Philosophy & SpiritualityRelease Year: 2005 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
