Laws In Nature

Outlining a different theory of natural laws, this book addresses questions debated by metaphysicians such as whether the laws of nature are necessary or contingent and whether a property can be identified independently of its causal role. It begins with the question of whether there are any genuinely law-like phenomena in nature.
