What is "High Strange"? It's the men in black erasing your UFO research. It's a corporate takeover by bio-occult horrors. It's losing your edge, and finding it again at the bottom of the cosmos. It's your television telling you to eat your government-approved genetically-modified breakfast cereal. It's the unexplained lights in the sky and the faceless gray woman haunting your dreams. It's ancient legends working under contract. It's the forbidden film playing at a haunted movie theater. It's the medical staff making sure you stay crazy. It's the 19th round of mini golf with a disembodied pirate. It's the outer reaches of human experience. Where conventional reality ends, High Strange begins. Over a dozen authors mine the deepest reaches of consciousness and Fortean phenomena. Are you ready to see what lies beyond the veil?

This work argues that being bound by a social convention can be valuable for its own sake. People need meaning in their lives, and conventions infuse our acts and attitudes with significance, rendering them right or wrong. Such rules bind us not just in virtue of their usefulness but also because their absence would impoverish our social world.

Professor of Philosophy David Owens

In an important departure from current theories of causation, David Owens proposes that coincidences have no causes, and that a cause is something which ensures that its effects are no coincidence. In Causes and coincidences, he elucidates the idea of a coincidence as an event which can be divided into constituent events, the nomological antecedents of which are independent of each other. He also suggests that causal facts can be analysed in terms of non-causal facts, including relations of necessity. Thus, causation is defined in terms of coincidence, and coincidence without reference to causation. David Owens challenges ideas associated with Hume, Davidson and Lewis, constructing a theory which distinguishes nomological necessity and sufficiency from their logical counterparts. He is able to offer novel solutions to the major problems of causation, including the direction of causation, the logical form of causal statements, the problem of deviant causal chains, and the relationship between psychological and physical causation.
