'Like others in this series of conference proceedings, the volume's essay-and-response structure allows the reader to sit in on an ongoing exchange with experts who have not only thought long and hard about the topic, but who have thought long and hard in conversation with one another. The result of these regular collaborations over the years between psychologists, psychiatrists, and philosophers has been the development of a cumulative vocabulary and shared understanding that have played a foundational role in shaping the young field of philosophy of psychiatry. This latest volume is no different - it gathers together some of the most significant theorists not just of causation in psychiatry, but of causation writ large. The result is essays that apply the most exciting thinking about causation from across the disciplines to some of the most enduring explanatory challenges facing psychiatry. It will, moving forward, be the first port of call for anyone interested in the topic.' Kathryn Tabb, Assistant Professor of Philosophy, Bard College, USA.
