This book deals with the philosophical and methodological aspects of information technology and the collection and analysis of data to provide insight into a problem, whether it is scientific research, policy making by government or decision making in our daily lives. The author seeks to dispels the doubts that chance is an expression of our ignorance which makes accurate prediction impossible and illustrates how our thinking has changed with quantification of uncertainty by showing that chance is no longer the obstructor but a way of expressing our knowledge. Indeed, chance can create and help in the investigation of truth. This theory is eloquently demonstrated with numerous examples of applications that statistics is the science, technology and art of extracting information from data and is based on a study of the laws of chance. It shows how statistical ideas played a vital role in scientific and other investigations even before statistics was recognized as a separate discipline, and how statistics is now evolving as a versatile, powerful and inevitable tool in diverse fields of human endeavour such as literature, legal matters, industry, archaeology and medicine. The use of statistics to the layman in improving the quality of life through wise decision-making is emphasized.
还是大一时读过,那时候主要感觉是:不明觉厉。现在重读理解的就多多了。这不是一本用公式理 论推导写成的专业书籍,而是从统计科学结 构、思想甚至思考角度构成的专业书籍。没 有太多的公式,更注重解释统计科学的基本 思路,对于入门或梳理统计学都相当有帮 助。
评分决定婴儿性别的随机结果与从装有相同数目的两种颜色小球的口袋中任取一球或是白球是黑球所得到的随机结构相同。 大数定律断言,一系列中多个个体平均行为所显示的不确定性将会随着个体总数的不断增加而逐渐减少,因而可以把这个系统作为一个整体,其表现的几乎是决定性的现象。...

评分以前在一个书单上看到的这本书,说是讲到统计学的哲学思想。然后跑到豆瓣来看,介绍里面给的评价也是很高。 于是就带着满心期望来看,最后读完也只是觉得这就是一本科普书而已,而且还不算一本好的科普书,这可能也跟作者的翻译水平有关。 老实说,书里面想传达的概念还是很...
