评分很不错的贝叶斯学派发展史
评分作为一本历史书,我觉得还挺好的,各种小故事,很适合我这种学术八卦爱好者,虽然有些素材跟其他书是重复的。如果把这个当科普看,那就要失望了,一个讲数学应用的科普没有公式,这能想象么。看了下作者Sharon McGrayne的个人网站,Swarthmore College的B. A.出身,所以尽管这位阿姨写了好些关于科学家的书,也不停在学术会议上作报告(我觉得底下听的人感觉应该像我们听外国人说相声),但是我觉得她应该不懂,所以也不能苛求。

评分拉普拉斯粉乱入试图分裂贝叶斯朋友圈,果然是人心可谓。
Drawing on primary source material and interviews with statisticians and other scientists, "The Theory That Would Not Die" is the riveting account of how a seemingly simple theorem ignited one of the greatest scientific controversies of all time. Bayes' rule appears to be a straightforward, one-line theorem: by updating our initial beliefs with objective new information, we get a new and improved belief. To its adherents, it is an elegant statement about learning from experience. To its opponents, it is subjectivity run amok. In the first-ever account of Bayes' rule for general readers, Sharon Bertsch McGrayne explores this controversial theorem and the human obsessions surrounding it. She traces its discovery by an amateur mathematician in the 1740s through its development into roughly its modern form by French scientist Pierre Simon Laplace. She reveals why respected statisticians rendered it professionally taboo for 150 years - at the same time that practitioners relied on it to solve crises involving great uncertainty and scanty information, even breaking Germany's Enigma code during World War II, and explains how the advent of off-the-shelf computer technology in the 1980s proved to be a game-changer. Today, Bayes' rule is used everywhere from DNA decoding to Homeland Security. "The Theory That Would Not Die" is a vivid account of the generations-long dispute over one of the greatest breakthroughs in the history of applied mathematics and statistics.
