Subjective Probability : The Real Thing Paperback / softback
by Richard (Princeton University, New Jersey) Jeffrey
Paperback / softback
- Information
Description
This book offers a concise survey of basic probability theory from a thoroughly subjective point of view whereby probability is a mode of judgment.
Written by one of the greatest figures in the field of probability theory, the book is both a summation and synthesis of a lifetime of wrestling with these problems and issues.
After an introduction to basic probability theory, there are chapters on scientific hypothesis-testing, on changing your mind in response to generally uncertain observations, on expectations of the values of random variables, on de Finetti's dissolution of the so-called problem of induction, and on decision theory.
