Title: Understanding counterfactuals, understanding causation
Description: How are causal judgements such as 'the ice on the road caused the traffic accident' connected with judgements such as 'if there had not been any ice on the road, the traffic accident would not have happened'? This book looks at this question by uniting psychological and philosophical approaches to causation and counterfactuals.
