Book Reviews of A Treatise On Probability

Book Review: Historically important ... but.
Summary: 3 Stars

The author introduces key concepts for the first time. He also introduces some ideas that I had not seen before. The book is historically important. However, the author's writing style is very much a product of his time - obviously brevity was not considered a virtue. The book is really, painfully long. If you are a historian, great. If you are looking for key concepts in statistical theory, there are other books that will get to the point much quicker.
