%X Exact solutions for the spatially flat (k = 0) Robertson&#8211;Walker cosmological model in Brans&#8211;Dicke scalar tensor theory have been obtained in the presence of a causal viscous fluid. It is found that if the scale factor is a power function of the scalar field, then solutions can be obtained in the full causal theory but not in the truncated theory of non-equilibrium thermodynamics.
