Stephen LeRoy of the University of California, Santa Barbara reviews 'Mechanism and Causality in Biology and Economics', by Hsiang-Ke Chao, Szu-Ting Chen, and Roberta L. Millstein. The Econlit abstract of this book begins: 'Eleven papers, resulting from conferences held by Taiwan's National Science Council in 2008 and 2011, explore mechanism and causality in biology and economics. Papers discuss mechanisms versus causes in biology and medicine (Lindley Darden); identity, structure, and causal representation in scientific models (Kevin D. Hoover); the regrettable loss of mathematical molding in econometrics (Marcel Boumans); models of mechanisms--the case of the replicator dynamics (Till Grüne-Yanoff); experimental discovery, data models, and mechanisms in biology--an example from Gregor Mendel's work (Ruey-Lin Chen); mechanisms and laws--clarifying the debate (Carl F. Craver and Marie I. Kaiser); natural selection and causal productivity (Roberta L. Millstein); is natural selection a population-level causal process? (Rong-Lin Wang); mechanisms and extrapolation in the abortion-crime controversy (Daniel Steel); causality, impartiality, and evidence-based policy (David Teira and Julian Reiss); and explaining the explanations of one hundred million missing women (Hsiang-Ke Chao and Szu-Ting Chen). Chao is with the Department of Economics at the National Tsing Hua University. Chen is with the Graduate Institute of Philosophy at the National Tsing Hua University. Millstein is with the Department of Philosophy at the University of California, Davis.' [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
