Backward causation normally presents in philosophical interpretations of quantum mechanics committing time reversal symmetric characteristics,on which is philosophically reviewed by Lewis from a perspective of overde-termination.It holds key position in the major scientific philosophical debates of backward causation at this stage.Study shows that thought experiments operating on fine-grained individuation of events in causation are not arbi-trary,that is,they appropriately yield to physical laws.According to Price's approach,this paper is citing fusion emergence of Humphreys as typical of the inadequacy of criticism of backward causation,which responses to Lew-is'opposition to backward causation to some extent.
