Peirce Sesquicentennial International Congress opened at Harvard University on September 5, 1989, and concluded on the tenth, Peirce's birthday. The congress had been convened by the Charles S. Peirce Society, following an idea by Michael Shapiro. The organizing institutions were Harvard University and Texas Tech University. Congress headquarters was Sever Hall in Harvard Yard, formerly the site of the residence of Benjamin Peirce, a mathematics professor at Harvard,where his son Charles (1839­1914) grew to adulthood. During the five days of its existence, the congress was host to approximately 450 scholars from 26 different nations. The present collection is a portion of the papers that were presented at the congress. A group of papers, from which those in this volume have been selected, were assigned to the editor of the present volume by the organizing committee. Other papers have been given to other editors. One of the sustained efforts of Peirce scholars over the years since 1931–36, when the bulk of the Peirce papers was first published, has been to stimulate a wider interest in Peirce's work. Peirce was known to only a few as recently as 1962, when the journal, Transactions of the Charles S. Peirce Society, was founded. That journal today has over 550 subscribing members. Papers concerning Peirce's philosophy of science were given at the congress by representatives from Italy, France, Sweden, Finland, Korea, India, Denmark, Greece, Brazil, Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, and the United States. Thus a main point of Page xii this present volume is to show how worldwide the interest in Peirce is today. Ernest Nagel of Columbia University wrote in 1959 that "there is a fair consensus among historians of ideas that Charles Sanders Peirce remains the most original, versatile, and comprehensive philosophical mind this country has yet produced." The breadth of topics discussed in the present volume suggests that this is as true today as it was in 1959. The congress was directed by an organizing committee consisting of the following persons: Hilary Putnam (president of the congress), Kenneth Laine Ketner (chairperson of the organizing committee), Hanna Buczynska­Garewicz (USA and Poland), Gerard Deledalle (France), Umberto Eco (Italy), Takashi Fujimoto (Japan), Susan Haack (United Kingdom), Jaako Hintikka (USA and Finland), Christian J. W. Kloesel (USA), Dan Nesher (Israel), Klaus Oehler (Federal Republic of Germany), Nicholas Rescher (USA), David Savan (Canada), Israel Scheffler (USA), and Michael Shapiro (USA). Administrative assistants for the congress were, in Lubbock, Joyce Abbott (Division of Continuing Education), Texas Tech University; and, in Cambridge, Alexandra Collins (Programs in Professional Education), Harvard University. Ms. Collins was in charge of local arrangements. The congress was supported by the following individuals and organizations: Claude Ventry Bridges Memorial Fund (Texas Tech University), National Endowment for the Humanities, Charles S. Peirce Foundation, Charles S. Peirce Society, College of Arts and Sciences (Texas Tech University), Division of Continuing Education (Texas Tech University), Institute for Studies in Pragmaticism (Texas Tech University), Library of Texas Tech University, Department of Philosophy (Harvard University), Programs in Professional Education (Harvard University), Mr. W. B. Rushing (Lubbock, Texas), Mary Baker Rumsey Foundation (Lubbock, Texas), and Society for the Advancement of American Philosophy. The editor of the present volume wishes also to thank the Museum of Natural History at the University of Alabama for providing support for him during the preparation of this volume. Given the interest that Charles Peirce had in all the natural sciences, this support seems particularly appropriate.

  • Distinguishing ‘‘Or’’ from ‘‘And’’ and the Case for Historical Identification
    Cladistics Cladistics 18 (2002) 585–593 www.academicpress.com Distinguishing ‘‘or’’ from ‘‘and’’ and the case for historical identification Arnold G. Kluge* Museum of Zoology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA Accepted 23 August 2002 Abstract The adequacy of a probabilistic interpretation must be judged according to the nature of the event, or thing, being inferred. For example, conditional (frequency) probability is not admissible in the inference of phylogeny, because basic statements of common ancestry do not fulfill the requirements of the relations specified by the probability calculus. The probabilities of the situation peculiar to the time and place of origin of species are unique. Moreover, according to evolutionary theory, an event of species diversification is necessarily unique, because species are parts of a replicator continuum—species arise from ancestral species. Also, these probabilities cannot be ascertained, because the relevant situation cannot be repeated—it is unique. Finally, the applicability of conditional (frequency) probability is denied, because events of common ancestry have already occurred—there is nothing to predict. However, hypotheses of species relationships can be identified objectively according to the degree to which they have survived si- multaneous testing with critical evidence, not with generally confirming evidence. The most parsimonious hypothesis of species relationships represents the least disconfirmed, best supported, proposition among the alternatives being compared. That hypothesis

  • 1. Probability Probability Is a Measure of the Likeliness That an Event Will Occur
    Page 1 of 8 1. Probability Probability is a measure of the likeliness that an event will occur. Probability is used to quantify an attitude of mind towards some proposition of whose truth we are not certain. The proposition of interest is usually of the form "Will a specific event occur?" The attitude of mind is of the form "How certain are we that the event will occur?" The certainty we adopt can be described in terms of a numerical measure and this number, between 0 and 1 (where 0 indicates impossibility and 1 indicates certainty), we call probability. Thus the higher the probability of an event, the more certain we are that the event will occur. A simple example would be the toss of a fair coin. Since the 2 outcomes are deemed equiprobable, the probability of "heads" equals the probability of "tails" and each probability is 1/2 or equivalently a 50% chance of either "heads" or "tails". These concepts have been given an axiomatic mathematical formalization in probability theory (see probability axioms), which is used widely in such areas of study as mathematics, statistics, finance, gambling, science (in particular physics), artificial intelligence/machine learning, computer science, and philosophy to, for example, draw inferences about the expected frequency of events. Probability theory is also used to describe the underlying mechanics and regularities of complex systems. 1.1 Interpretations When dealing with experiments that are random and well-defined in a purely theoretical setting (like tossing a fair coin), probabilities can be numerically described by the statistical number of outcomes considered favorable divided by the total number of all outcomes (tossing a fair coin twice will yield head-head with probability 1/4, because the four outcomes head-head, head-tails, tails-head and tails-tails are equally likely to occur).
