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 stimulatingexamples to bring the subject to life. All students of philosophy will benefit from an understanding of probability, 606 $aProbabilities$xPhilosophy 615 0$aProbabilities$xPhilosophy. 676 $a519.201 700 $aChilders$b Timothy$01689204 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823440803321 996 $aPhilosophy and probability$94064070 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01584ojm 2200241z- 450 001 9910149718003321 005 20251113110208.0 010 $a1-5159-9432-5 035 $a(CKB)3710000000935430 035 $a(BIP)060409815 035 $a(ODN)ODN0003026586 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000935430 100 $a20231107c2016uuuu -u- - 101 0 $aeng 200 10$aBeast of Barcroft 210 $cTantor Audio 330 8 $aBen McKelvie believes he's moving up in the world when he and his fiancee buy a house in the cushy Washington, D.C., suburb of Barcroft. Instead, he's moving down-way down-thanks to Madeleine Roux, the crazy neighbor whose vermin-infested property is a permanent eyesore and looming hazard to public health. First, Ben's fiancee leaves him; then, his dog dies, apparently killed by a predator drawn into Barcroft by Madeleine's noxious menagerie. But the worst is yet to come for Ben, for he's not dealing with any ordinary wild animal. This killer is something much, much worse. Something that couldn't possibly exist-in this world. Now, as a devilish creature stalks the locals, Ben resolves to take action. With some grudging assistance from a curator at the Smithsonian's National Zoo and the crackpot theories of a self-styled cryptozoologist, he discovers the sinister truth behind the attacks, but knowing the Beast of Barcroft and stopping it are two different animals. 700 $aSchweigart$b Bill$01435753 702 $aDamron$b Will$4nrt 906 $aAUDIO 912 $a9910149718003321 996 $aBeast of Barcroft$93593927 997 $aUNINA
