Surprised?

10 March 2010

In the section The propensity theories of Miller, the later Popper and Fetzer, I consider the propensity theories of Miller and the later Popper, and of Fetzer.

Donald Gillies
Philosophical Theories of Probability
Ch 6 §1 (p114)

In the section General arguments for interpreting probabilities in economcs as epistemological rather than objective, I will present some general arguments for interpreting probabilities in economcs as epistemological rather than objective.

Gillies, opus citatum
Ch 9 §1 (p187)

There's a huge amount of utterly useless meta-discussion in Gillies' book. He writes about his writing without providing any meaningful enlightenment whatsoëver.

An editor should have put his or her foot down, and told Gillies to trim away all this fat. But, again, there doesn't seem to be much editing of books these days, except when done by authors themselves.
