介紹瞭regularity, counterfactual和physical transference三種理論,然後討論瞭plural和primitive的處理方式,最後是作者自己的dispositionalism(我很好奇這種誇張的所謂causal power能不能用modal property來deflation掉)。
評分沒知乎大神寫的好……
評分這個話題算形而上學嗎……?
評分沒知乎大神寫的好……
評分短小精悍,就像引言裏所說:“這本書是對於任何需要知道什麼是因果關係的人都是個很好的齣發點,而‘任何需要知道的人’,我猜想是每一個人。”我基本每一頁都寫瞭筆記,這次論文不敢寫意識啊自由意誌啊也是因為覺得連因果都沒有理解透,還是不要妄想理解高級認知瞭。新年第一天,早上看完瞭本書,中午和蛋蛋還有二寶吃瞭火鍋,暴雨天,幸福
Stephen Mumford is Professor of Metaphysics at the Department of Philosophy, University of Nottingham, and Dean of the Faculty of Arts. He has written several books on this topic, including Dispositions (OUP, 1998), Laws in Nature (Routledge, 2004), Getting Causes from Powers (with Rani Lill Anjum, OUP, 2011), and Metaphysics: A Very Short Introduction (OUP, 2012).
Rani Lill Anjum is Research Fellow at the Norwegian University of Life Science where she leads the Causation in Science research project (CauSci). CauSci is a global network for those interested in a scientifically informed philosophy of causation. She has written many popular articles in magazines and newspapers and delivered numerous talks for non-specialist audiences. She is the co-author of Getting Causes from Powers (OUP, 2011).
Causation is the most fundamental connection in the universe. Without it, there would be no science or technology. There would be no moral responsibility either, as none of our thoughts would be connected with our actions and none of our actions with any consequences. Nor would we have a system of law because blame resides only in someone having caused injury or damage.
Any intervention we make in the world around us is premised on there being causal connections that are, to a degree, predictable. It is causation that is at the basis of prediction and also explanation. This Very Short Introduction introduces the key theories of causation and also the surrounding debates and controversies. Do causes produce their effects by guaranteeing them? Do causes have to precede their effects? Can causation be reduced to the forces of physics? And are we right to think of causation as one single thing at all?
