This volume considers contingency as a historical category resulting from the combination of various intellectual elements - epistemological, philosophical, material, as well as theological and, broadly speaking, intellectual.
Chapter 1: Introduction: The Principle of Contingency from Medieval Physics to Early Modern Epistemology; Pietro D. Omodeo and Rodolfo Garau.- PART I: METAPHYSICAL AND NATURAL CONTINGENCY.- Chapter 2: Scholastic Views on Causality and the Quantification of Natural Phenomena; Magali Roques.- Chapter 3: Secundum Quid and Contingentia: Scholastic Reminiscences in Early Modern Mechanics; Pietro D. Omodeo and Jurgen Renn.- Chapter 4: Practical Knowledge and Contingency in the Renaissance.- Chapter 5: Contingency and Necessity in Renaissance Astrology.- Chapter 6: Two Early Modern Problems of Contingency: Irregularity and the Laws of Motion, and the Status of Secondary Qualities; Rodolfo Garau.- Chapter 7: Dealing with Contingency in Early Modern Mathematics.- Chapter 8: Sufficient Reason and the Vagaries of Keplerian Matter; Jonathan Regier.- Chapter 9: Is Physiology the Domain of Necessity or Contingency in Descartes's Physics?
