Causality: Models, Reasoning, and Inference (2000;[1] updated 2009[2]) is a book by Judea Pearl.[3] It is an exposition and analysis of causality.[4][5] It is considered to have been instrumental in laying the foundations of the modern debate on causal inference in several fields including statistics, computer science and epidemiology.[6] In this book, Pearl espouses the Structural Causal Model (SCM) that uses structural equation modeling.[7] This model is a competing viewpoint to the Rubin causal model. Some of the material from the book was reintroduced in the more general-audience targeting The Book of Why.
