Description

Explore a foundational text in the philosophy of mathematics with this reissue of D. A. Gillies' influential work. Originally published in 1973, An Objective Theory of Probability offers a deep examination of probability as a mathematical science. This Routledge Revival provides a unique perspective by developing the views of von Mises, treating probability as an objective and measurable concept similar to force, mass, or charge in physics. In this text, Dr. Gillies moves beyond traditional definitions. While he agrees with von Mises regarding the nature of probability, he rejects the idea of defining it solely through limiting frequency. Instead, he argues that probability should be treated as a primitive or undefined term in line with modern axioms. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the history of mathematics and the philosophical foundations of probability theory.
