In this book the author provides a key to understanding the role of covering laws in historical explanation. He does so by distinguishing between their use at the macro - and micro- levels, a distinction that no other scholar has made. He then sets forth the logic of an explanatory narrative, explores the nature of rational explanation, and distinguishes the logic of historical interpretation from the logic of historical explanation.
