Mathematics

hardcover. Not all scientific explanations work by describing causal connections between events or the world's overall causal structure.

This book proposes new philosophical accounts of many kinds of non-causal explanations in science and mathematics. Series: Oxford Studies in Philosophy of Science. Num Pages: 512 pages, 56. BIC Classification: HPJ; PBB; PDA. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 240 x 182 x 39. Weight in Grams: 826.
