"What constitutes a causal explanation, and must an explanation be causal? What warrants
a causal inference, as opposed to a descriptive regularity? What techniques are available
to detect when causal effects are present, and when can these techniques be used to
identify the relative importance of these effects? What complications do the interactions
of individuals create for these techniques? When can mixed methods of analysis be
used to deepen causal accounts? Must causal claims include generative mechanisms,
and how effective are empirical methods designed to discover them? The Handbook of
causal analysis for social research tackles these questions with nineteen chapters
from leading scholars in sociology, statistics, public health, computer science, and
human development."--Page [4] de la couverture
