The philosophical concept of causality or causation refers to the set of all particular "causal" or "cause-and-effect" relations. A neutral definition is notoriously hard to provide since every aspect of causation has received substantial debate. Most generally, causation is a relationship that holds between events, objects, variables, or states of affairs. It is usually presumed that the cause chronologically precedes the effect. Finally, the existence of a causal relationship generally suggests that - all other things bein ...

Determinant - History: Encyclopedia - Ammonia

Ammonia is a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen with the formula NH3. At standard temperature and pressure ammonia is a gas.

Determinant - History: Encyclopedia - Complex system

Many natural phenomena may be called complex systems, and complexity science is highly interdisciplinary. Examples of complex systems include ant-hills, ants themselves, human economies, nervous systems, cells and so forth, as well as human beings and their psychology, emotions, bodies and interactions. Beyond the fact that these things are all networks of some kind, and that they are complex, it may appear that they have little in common, and hence that the term "complex system" is vacuous. However, all complex systems ...
