The book of why : the new science of cause and effect

Pearl, Judea, author, Mackenzie, Dana, author

نظرة عامة

\"Everyone has heard the claim, 'Correlation does not imply causation.' What might sound like a reasonable dictum metastasized in the twentieth century into one of science's biggest obstacles, as a legion of researchers became unwilling to make the claim that one thing could cause another. Even two decades ago, asking a statistician a question like 'Was it the aspirin that stopped my headache?' would have been like asking if he believed in voodoo, or at best a topic for conversation at a cocktail party rather than a legitimate target of scientific inquiry. Scientists were allowed to posit only that the probability that one thing was associated with another. This all changed with Judea Pearl\"-- Provided by publisher.
