The emphasis is on stochastic processes, however. Editor(s): Galavotti, Maria Carla; Suppes, Patrick; Costantini, Domenico. Series: Center for the Study of Language and Information Publication Lecture Notes. Num Pages: 280 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: HP; PBWL; PDA.

The papers collected here focus on probabilistic causality, addressing topics such as the search for causal mechanisms, epistemic and metaphysical views of causality, Bayesian nets and causal dependence, and causation in the special sciences. Some papers stress the statistical analysis of probabilistic data; others address causal issues in physics, with an emphasis on physical processes that are also probabilistic—i.e., stochastic processes.
