Causality in field physics in its bearing upon biological causation
Philosophy of Science 5 (2):166-180 (1938)
Abstract
The concept of causality as it appears in a specific scientific theory involves two factors: the relation of necessary connection between the states of a system at different times, and the definition of state at a given time.My notes
