What did it mean to be reasonable in the Age of Reason? Classical
probabilists from Jakob Bernouli through Pierre Simon Laplace intended
their theory as an answer to this question--as "nothing more at bottom
than good sense reduced to a calculus," in Laplace's words. In terms
that can be easily grasped by nonmathematicians, Lorraine Daston
demonstrates how this view profoundly shaped the internal development
of probability theory and defined its applications.
