Current Issues in Causation

这本书的目的是给一个概述的艺术状态的哲学因果关系。它收集了1998年12月10日至12日在康斯坦茨举行的一次讲习班上提出的经过大量修订的论文。为了代表因果关系哲学中处理的所有方面，论文包括在因果关系形而上学的特定框架内的考虑（例如规律性理论或从原因提高其影响的可能性方面的prebellion观点）以及物理学的相关性，特别是量子力学。

This book is intended to give an overview of the state of the art in the philosophy of causation. It collect considerably revised papers presented at a workshop in Konstanz in December 10-12, 1998. In order to represent all the aspects that are treated in the philosophy of causation, the papers include considerations within an specific framework for a metaphysics of causation (such as a regularity theory or a prebabilistic view in terms of causes raising the chances of their effects) as well as the relevance of physics, in particular quantum mechanics.
