Hacker News 上怎么说

  • 只是想提醒一下,Ian Hacking 的作品在这方面极为出色,尤其是《The Emergence of Probability》(1975)和《The Taming of Chance》(1990)。有时候读起来晦涩艰深,但文笔很好,是一个极富原创性的大脑的结晶。后一本书在维基百科上有词条,提供了更多信息——挺意外地……

    Just wanted to flag that the works of Ian Hacking, especially The Emergence of Probability (1975) and The Taming of Chance (1990) are excellent on this. Dense and challenging at times but also well written and the product of a very original mind. The latter book has a Wikipedia page with some more info - was surprised to…

  • 这是一本非常好的书,数学味挺浓:https://archive.org/details/ofmathemahistory00todhrich Ian Hacking 有两本书,他是哲学家,因此视野更加开阔:《The Taming of Chance》和《The Emergence of Probability》。Stephen Stigler 的《The History of Statistics》似乎是最流行的一本统计学史。

    This is a very good book, fairly mathematical: https://archive.org/details/ofmathemahistory00todhrich Ian Hacking has two books, he is a philosopher, accordingly they have a broader outlook: "The Taming of Chance" "The Emergence of Probability" Stephen Stigler's "The History of Statistics" seems to be the most popular history of statistics.

  • 写得很扎实。如果有人想更深入地了解概率究竟是怎样‘开始被当成’客观真实存在的,我强烈推荐 Ian Hacking 的《The Taming of Chance》。在很多方面都极具启发性。

    Solid write up. If anyone's interesting in knowing more about how probability _came to be_ 'regarded' as real, i highly recommend Ian Hacking's "The Taming of Chance". Thought provoking in so many ways.
