Descrizione The Design Inference
The design inference uncovers intelligent causes by isolating their key trademark: specified events of small probability. Just about anything that happens is highly improbable, but when a highly improbable event is also specified (i.e. conforms to an independently given pattern) undirected natural causes lose their explanatory power. This provocative book shows how incomplete undirected causes are for science and breathes new life into classical design arguments. It will be of particular interest to philosophers of science and religion and to those concerned with epistemology, logic, probability, complexity theory, and statistics.
