[FRIAM] Book Recommendation

[Frank Wimberly]

A number of recent topics such as Kuhn’s work, Popper’s method, the
nature of mind, etc. have caused me to consult a book written by my
erstwhile colleague Clark Glymour, a philosophy professor at CMU
(formerly of Princeton, UCSD, etc.).  I wonder if that book would be of
interest to others who read this list.  It is “Thinking Things Through:
An Introduction to Philosophical Issues and Achievements”, MIT Press
1998.  The main sections are:  The Idea of a Proof; Experience,
Knowledge and Belief; and Minds. Bayesian reasoning is also discussed,
among other things.
