What Are the Pragmatics of Explanation
John T. Roberts The Law-Governed Universe
An Introduction to Metaphysics
This book is an accessible introduction to the central themes of contemporary metaphysics. It carefully considers accounts of causation, freedom and determinism, laws of nature, personal identity, mental states, time, material objects, and properties, while inviting students to reflect on metaphysical problems. The philosophical questions discussed include: What makes it the case that one event causes another event? What are material objects? Giv…

Laws of Nature
Laws of Nature
John Carroll undertakes a careful philosophical examination of laws of nature, causation, and other related topics. He argues that laws of nature are not susceptible to the sort of philosophical treatment preferred by empiricists. Indeed he shows that emperically pure matters of fact need not even determine what the laws are. Similar, even stronger, conclusions are drawn about causation. Replacing the traditional view of laws and causation requir…
Causation and Universals
Science and Necessity. John Bigelow , Robert Pargetter
The Humean Tradition
David Hume's discussions of causation have placed constraints on most subsequent accounts of scientific laws. After motivating and describing these Humean constraints, I will argue that they are unsatisfiable. There are two reasons for this conclusion. The first is that extant attempts to give such an account of laws face serious objections. This will be argued by reviewing familiar problems with a Naive Regularity Account and by considering two …
