While contemporary philosophy of science  deals only with the former, the author provides the concept for the  reconstruction of scientific laws, where the knowledge of the  phenomena enables one to grasp the quantity of their cause. He then  provides the concepts for scientific laws dealing with the relation of  the quantity and quality of the cause underlying phenomena to the  quality and quantity of its capacities. Finally, he provides concepts  for scientific laws expressing how a certain cause, due to the  quantity and quality of its capacities, generates the quantitative and  qualitative determinations of its manifestations. The book is intended  for philosophers of science and philosophers of social science, as  well as for natural and social scientists.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-11-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792358527\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-017-3265-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 234cm x156cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 230\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45378514550924,"sku":"9780792358527","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792358527.jpg?v=1772024420","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792358527","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
