In a later survey paper, Sudderth (1994) returned to this issue, and his brief comment seems very much to the point: Several authors (see, for example, Heath and Sudderth (1972) or Skyrms (1984)) have remarked that if a gambler is allowed to make countably many bets, then P must be countably additiv ...

Probability And Statistics Throughout The Centuries
... Beyond population biology and genetics, which have already been mentioned, modern biology can hardly exist without statistical analysis. DNA mapping, e.g., and other biological procedures require perhaps as much biology as statistics. Statistics plays a decisive role in extracting useful information ...

Associated analytic models for density functions and distributions, and the relations between then, will be discussed. Although the bivariate case occurs in many disc ...

... all readers must agree that Howie has done an excellent job of chronicling a crucial set of debates in the development of probability and statistics. In chapter 6, Howie tries to place the work (and debate) of Fisher and Jeffreys in the broader context of probabilistic thought in the 1930’s. I think ...
