Copertina de Helen Beebee & Christopher Hitchcock: Making a Difference (PDF)

Making a Difference presents fifteen original essays on causation and counterfactuals by an international team of experts. Collectively, they represent the state of the art on these topics. The essays in this volume are inspired by the life and work of Peter Menzies, who made a difference in the lives of students, colleagues, and friends. Topics covered include: the semantics of counterfactuals, agency theories of causation, the context-sensitivity of causalclaims, structural equation models, mechanisms, mental causation, causal exclusion argument, free will, and the consequence argument.
