A.J. Ayer 213366

Probability and Evidence

Columbia University Press, 2006. Hardcover. Pp: 208. A. J. Ayer was one of the foremost analytical philosophers of the twentieth century, and was known as a brilliant and engaging speaker. In essays based on his influential Dewey Lectures, Ayer addresses some of the most critical and controversial questions in epistemology and the philosophy of science, examining the nature of inductive reasoning and grappling with the issues that most concerned him as a philosopher. This edition contains revised and expanded versions of the lectures and two additional essays. Ayer begins by considering Hume's formulation of the problem of induction and then explores the inferences on which we base our beliefs in factual matters. In other essays, he defines the three kinds of probability that inform inductive reasoning and examines the various criteria for verifiability and falsifiability. In his extensive introduction, Graham Macdonald discusses the arguments in Probability and Evidence, how they relate to Ayer's other works, and their influence in contemporary philosophy. He also provides a brief biographical sketch of Ayer, and includes a bibliography of works about and in response to Probability and Evidence. ISBN: 9780231132749. Cond./Kwaliteit: Als nieuw.

General shelfwear. Bit of biopredation to boards. Overall, a Very Good copy. Ayer an enterprising young druggist who hailed from Groton, CT. By his mid-to-late 20s he owned his own business, and in 1843 he introduced Cherry Pectoral, for pulmonary complaints, to great acclaim & demand. The other 'cures' offered herein appeared over the next 24 years. Ayer took in his brother, Frederick, as partner in 1855, the firm then becoming J. C. Ayer & Co.; with this transformation began the extensive print advertising for which the firm would become known. "J.C. Ayer & Co. (later just Ayer & Co.) continued to manufacture medicinal products under the management of Frederick Ayer until his retirement around 1893. Frederick Ayer was still president of the company when he died on March 14, 1918. The company continued to operate in Lowell under the management of family members and professional managers until it finally left Lowell around 1943." [Cliff Hoyt website]. This particular volume used, no doubt, as a multilingual 'salesman's sample' book, giving examples of the divers language editions of Ayer's Almanac. We note the volume not recorded by Romaine, nor Zinman. OCLC records 4 holding institutions of this volume, though none west of the Rockies.
