Anthropic Bias
Book 27 of 47: Studies in PhilosophySeller: BuchWeltWeit Ludwig Meier e.K., Bergisch Gladbach, Germany
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -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. 244 pp. Englisch.
