Compare Decision Theory As Philosophy by Mark Kaplan, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Introducing a new variant on Bayesian decision theory the author offers a compelling case that, while no panacea, decision theory does in fact have the most profound consequences for the way in which philosophers think about inquiry, criticism and rational belief. The new variant on Bayesian theory is presented in such a way that a nonspecialist will be able to understand it. The book also offers new solutions to some classic paradoxes. It focuses on the intuitive motivations of the Bayesian approach to epistemology and addresses the philosophical worries to which it has given rise. | Decision Theory As Philosophy by Mark Kaplan, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
