- Title
Probability Theory and Consistent Reasoning.
- Authors
North, D. Warner
- Abstract
The author comments on a study by Tejre Aven on probability theory and consistent reasoning, published in an issue of "Risk Analysis." It mentions that Aven seems to admit a description of risk analysis as offering objective description of the uncertain quantities. He argues that risk analysis always rests on data and assumptions as well as the belief that judgment is needed about whether the right assumptions and data have been used in a particular setting.
