Críticas
"This is the only book I know of that gives a unified treatment of causation, laws, and explanation. Psillos has full command of the literature on these topics and explains the links between the issues masterfully. He gets involved with topics of current controversy and is prepared to take sides but does so with an eye to introducing readers to the central issues." David Papineau, King's College London
