For decades, scientists have used this mantra to avoid taking positions on whether one thing caused another, such as smoking and cancer, or carbon dioxide and global warming. However, that taboo has been broken. The causal revolution, sparked by world-renowned computer scientist Judea Pearl and his colleagues, has cleared up a century of confusion and established cause and effect on a solid scientific foundation. Now, Pearl and science journalist Dana Mackenzie are bringing causal thinking to the general public for the first time, demonstrating how it enables us to explore the world as it is and the worlds that could have been.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the essence of human and artificial intelligence. Just as Pearl's discoveries have enabled machines to think better, The Book of Why explains how we can think better too. Pearl's accomplishments over the last 30 years have laid the theoretical foundation for progress in artificial intelligence and have redefined the term \"thinking machine.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVint Cerf, one of the pioneers of the Internet, has said, \"Judea Pearl's work is a landmark in the development of artificial intelligence.
