Examining the debate that began as modern science separated itself
from natural philosophy in the 16th and 17th centuries, this text
explores the two dominant approaches to causation as a metaphysical
problem and as a scientific problem. As philosophy and science
turned from the ideas of Aristotle that dominated western thought
throughout the renaissance, one of the most pressing intellectual
problems was how to replace Aristotelian science with its doctrine
of the four causes. The text looks at the historical discussion as
a debate that surrounds certain themes and ideas, and combines
classical discussions of causation with recent thinking on the
topic.
