Abstract:

This book brings together research on the topic of causation from experts in
the fields of linguistics, philosophy, and psychology. It seeks to arrive at a
more sophisticated understanding both of how causal concepts are expressed in
causal meanings, and how those meanings in turn are organized into structures.
Chapters address some of the most exciting current issues in the field,
including the relata of causal relations; the representation of defeasible
causation within verb phrases and at the level of modality; the difference
between direct and indirect causal chains; and the representation of these
chains in syntax.
