Logic, Vol. 3 (Classic Reprint)

Discover a rigorous, accessible account of causality centered on the idea of the continuant.

This volume examines how cause and effect relate when we focus on what persists through change. It uses clear examples from physics and psychology to show how continuants act as the logical backbone of causation, identity, and change over time and across space. The discussion helps readers see why non-identity is essential to distinguishing cause from effect, and how ideas like immanent and transeunt causality fit into scientific and philosophical reasoning.

- Learn how continuants function as the logical basis for connecting events in time and space.
- See how physical and psychical illustrations illuminate the idea of continuance and change.
- Understand how identity and difference arise in causal relationships without assuming static attributes.
- Explore the limits of substance talk and how modern views separate logical continuants from metaphysical baggage.

Ideal for readers of philosophy and logic who want a clear, methodical look at causation, identity, and the structure of scientific explanation.
