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 to 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?
