Part I: Appreciating and Burnishing the Past.- Chapter 1. Introduction.- Chapter 2. C.Hempel: In the beginning ....- Chapter 3. Laws and their corresponding counterfactuals; an untenable connection.- Chapter 4. F. Dretske's Total rejection of the Hempel model. Universals and Magnitudes to the rescue.- Chapter 5. Prelude to D.Armstrong: A mathematical movement which inspired Ramsey, and left Russell and Armstrong unmoved.- Chapter 6. D.Armstrong's account of laws. Identity lost, regained, and lost again.- Part II: The Relatvization of Laws to Theoretical scenarios, Schematic Theories and Physical and Nomic modals.- Chapter 7. Laws and Accidental Generalizations. A new, minimal theory of the difference.- Chapter 8. E. Nagel and R. B. Braithwaite. Two neglected radical and radically different theories: one inspired by Hilbert, the other by Ramsey.- Chapter 9. D. Hilbert's Architectural structuralism, and Schematic Theories.- Chapter 10. Theories, their magnitude spaces, and the physical possibilities they provide.- Chapter 11. Theories, laws, and nomic possibilities (modals).- Chapter 12. Schematic theories, subsumtion of laws, and non-accidental generalizations.
