Saggio filosofico sulle probabilità

Pierre-Simon Laplace · 1814 · New Italian translation edited by Gregorio Galli

What does it mean to reason when certainty is out of reach? In 1814 Laplace answered with a book without formulas, written for anyone who wants to think clearly: from games of chance to comets, from witnesses to courts of law, to the illusions that make us misjudge chance. This is where «Laplace’s demon» appears, along with the sentence that sums it all up: probability theory «is at bottom nothing but common sense reduced to calculation». Italian edition.
