Laws and Lawmakers: Science, Metaphysics, and the Laws of Nature
Lange, Marc (Professor of Philosophy, Professor of Philosophy, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill)
What distinguishes laws of nature from ordinary facts? What are the "lawmakers": the facts in virtue of which the laws are laws? How can laws be necessary, yet contingent? Lange provocatively argues that laws are distinguished by their necessity, which is grounded in primitive subjunctive facts, while also providing a non-technical and accessible survey of the field.
