Provides a formally rigorous and conceptually precise analysis of Bell’s notion of local causality 

Develops a framework, called local physical theory, which is necessary for the definition of local causality 

Relates local causality to other important concepts and principles such as the Common Cause Principle, EPR (Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen) scenario, Bell’s inequalities, and the Causal Markov Condition
