| Summary: | Philosophical tradition dictates that an account of causation should include both a "generalist" component (typically, the instantiation of a law) and a "singularist" component, in the form of certain unremarkable spatial-temporal relations. This pathbreaking book, while assuming some generalist component, focuses on the singularist aspect, asserting that causes and effects are tied together by more than spatial-temporal relations. Providing an account of causal influence that stresses the persistence of individual properties or "tropes," Douglas Ehring develops a powerfully original theory of causation, one that outperforms leading theories in explaining preemptive causation and contributes the most sophisticated view yet of causation's singularist component. |
