Symposium Abstract "Difference-making" accounts of causation have recently been put to use in solving the "exclusion problem": the problem of explaining how mental properties can be causes if they supervene on but are not identical with their physical realisers. … 6 Dec 2013 10:20 - 11:20 Event Thomas Pradeu Development, Information and Causation Symposium Abstract How does a fertilized egg develop into an embryo and subsequently into an adult form?

But CC is not even a necessary condition for causation, which ought really … 5 Dec 2013 15:50 - 16:50 Event Huw Price Causation in the Quantum World-A New Case for the Paris Option? Symposium Abstract In 1953 de Broglie's student, Olivier Costa de Beauregard, raised what he took to be an objection to the EPR argument.
