Mark Taper, Subhash Lele, and an esteemed group of contributors explore the relationships among hypotheses, models, data, and inference on which scientific progress rests in an attempt to develop a new quantitative framework for evidence. Informed by interdisciplinary discussions among scientists, philosophers, and statisticians, they propose a new "evidential" approach. 000351918 650_0 $$aScience$$xStatistical methods. 000351918 650_0 $$aScience$$xMethodology. 000351918 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000351918 7001_ $$aTaper, Mark L.,$$d1952- 000351918 7001_ $$aLele, Subhash. 000351918 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tNature of scientific evidence.$$dChicago : University of Chicago Press, 2004$$z9780226789552$$z9780226789576$$w(DLC) 2004003548$$w(OCoLC)54461920 000351918 8520_ $$bacq 000351918 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000351918 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=648122$$zOnline Access 000351918 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:351918$$pGLOBAL_SET 000351918 980__ $$aEBOOK 000351918 980__ $$aBIB 000351918 982__ $$aEbook 000351918 983__ $$aOnline
