Naturalistic Reason: Volume II, Unification of Science

This trilogy shows how interactions of space and matter explain the laws of physics, shows that they entail two basically different kinds of efficient causes that are jointly responsible for the regularities found by specialized sciences, and using a phenomenal intrinsic property of matter to explain consciousness, shows how metaphysics causes an evolutionary stage known as Western civilization. In this volume, science is unified by showing that interactions of space and matter constitute an efficient cause not recognized by physics that, together with physical causes, explains all the specialized regularities found in the study of nature.
