expansion

[edit]

That's what this article needs. May the verve, conciseness, rigor, and substance of Miller's analysis not be lost in translation. NPOV too of course. Thomasmeeks 13:46, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

His contributions to Probability, Logic and Verisimiltude would be a very welcome way of expanding this article. It also seems that one of his contributions to philosophy initiated the concern with the Principal principle, sometimes called Miller's principle. Miller says that the lesson of what he discovered here, the relation between probability and credence, has been misinterpreted. It also forms part of his criticism of Kripke's distinction between rigid and non-rigid-designators. He claims that no such distinction can be made that is not arbitrary or question begging. His contributions to probability are many, but there is an overlooked theory of probability proposed in his Critical Rationalism: A Restatement and Defence which he calls Instantaneous frequencies: it differs from both the propensity and the frequency interpretation, but is not a subjectivist approach to probability. 155.192.33.250 (talk) 11:59, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Same Miller?

[edit]

Is the subject of this article the same David Miller who translated Krivine's 'Introduction to axiomatic set theory'? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.122.21.120 (talk) 22:08, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Yes, that is the same Miller, it is on his list of publications here: http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/philosophy/people/associates/miller/opera.pdf — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.21.175.206 (talk) 02:00, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
