Opis
Probability is increasingly important for our understanding of the world. What is probability? How do we model it, and how do we use it? Timothy Childers presents a lively introduction to the foundations of probability and to philosophical issues it raises. He keeps technicalities to a minimum, and assumes no prior knowledge of the subject. He explains the main interpretations of probability-frequentist, propensity, classical, Bayesian, and objective Bayesian-and uses stimulating examples to bring the subject to life. All students of philosophy will benefit from an understanding of probability, and this is the book to provide it.Preface ; 1. Probability and Relative Frequencies ; 2. Propensities and Other Physical Probabilities ; 3. Subjective Probability ; 4. Subjective and Objective Probabilities ; 5. The Classical and Logical Interpretations ; 6. The Maximum Entropy Principle ; Appendices ; References
