Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Anthropic Bias explores how to reason when you suspect that your evidence is biased by "observation selection effects"--that is, evidence that has been filtered by the precondition that there be some suitably positioned observer to "have" the evidence. This conundrum--sometimes alluded to as… "the anthropic principle," "self-locating belief," or "indexical information"--turns out to be a surprisingly perplexing and intellectually stimulating challenge, one abounding with important implications for many areas in science and philosophy. There are the philosophical thought experiments and paradoxes: the Doomsday Argument; Sleeping Beauty; the Presumptuous Philosopher; Adam & Eve; the Absent-Minded Driver; the Shooting Room. And there are the applications in contemporary science: cosmology ("How many universes are there?", "Why does the universe appear fine-tuned for life?"); evolutionary theory ("How improbable was the evolution of intelligent life on our planet?"); the problem of time's arrow ("Can it be given a thermodynamic explanation?"); quantum physics ("How can the many-worlds theory be tested?"); game-theory problems with imperfect recall ("How to model them?"); even traffic analysis ("Why is the 'next lane' faster?"). Anthropic Bias argues that the same principles are at work across all these domains. And it offers a synthesis: a mathematically explicit theory of observation selection effects that attempts to meet scientific needs while steering clear of philosophical paradox. This book breaks new ground by drawing attention to certain kinds of biases that permeate many parts of science and by developing a theory of how to correct for these biases. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. 1st Edition. A fine copy with full number line, indicating first printing. Signed by Nick Bostrom to the front endpaper to philosopher John Leslie. It is not entirely clear what the two authors' relationship is aside from this work furthering progress on the Carter-Leslie Doomsday Argument; the mathem…atical and metaphysical implications of overpopulation. Alas, still a wonderful and scarce presentation copy of Bostrom's work with a great association. Book is about fine with some light signs of use. Brown cloth octavo, 224 pages, gilt titles to spine, no jacket as issued. Satisfaction guaranteed. Additional photos always available on request. Shipped in a fitted, padded box. Inscribed by Author(s).
