520 |a This is the first Eng translation of Causalite´ et Lois de La Nature, and is an important contribution to the theory of causation.

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.
