Description

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.
