An Introduction to Probability and Inductive Logic pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
This is an introductory textbook on probability and induction written by one of the world's foremost philosophers of science. The book has been designed to offer maximal accessibility to the widest range of students (not only those majoring in philosophy) and assumes no formal training in elementary symbolic logic. It offers a comprehensive course covering all basic definitions of induction and probability, and considers such topics as decision theory, Bayesianism, frequency ideas, and the philosophical problem of induction. The key features of the book are: * A lively and vigorous prose style* Lucid and systematic organization and presentation of the ideas* Many practical applications* A rich supply of exercises drawing on examples from such fields as psychology, ecology, economics, bioethics, engineering, and political science* Numerous brief historical accounts of how fundamental ideas of probability and induction developed.* A full bibliography of further reading Although designed primarily for courses in philosophy, the book could certainly be read and enjoyed by those in the social sciences (particularly psychology, economics, political science and sociology) or medical sciences such as epidemiology seeking a reader-friendly account of the basic ideas of probability and induction. Ian Hacking is University Professor, University of Toronto. He is Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, Fellow of the British Academy, and Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. he is author of many books including five previous books with Cambridge (The Logic of Statistical Inference, Why Does Language Matter to Philosophy?, The Emergence of Probability, Representing and Intervening, and The Taming of Chance).
定位應該是入門讀物。書中堆滿瞭不同地方形形式的賭博實例及其概率計算,到頭來真去瞭賭場我發現還是看不懂他們在玩什麼…關鍵還是得有錢呐
評分這一本是非常初步的。在初步介紹瞭邏輯和概率基本知識之後,著重介紹的是bayesianism(belief-type)和frequentism(frequency-type)的區彆。介紹的東西雖然入門,但很全,涵蓋瞭這兩個主流學派最基本的一些東西。技術性不強適閤入門。
