"The Book of Evidence is ambitious in aim and thorough in detail:
it seeks to show what is faulty about the major definitions of
evidence that have been on offer and develops a novel view that
relates evidence to explanation and realism. This book has a rare
combination of analytical clarity and historical sensibility and
could only have been written by someone who has been thinking about
these issues for several decades...Achinstein's project is
richly executed, with many fringe benefits."--Sherrilyn Roush,

"The Book of Evidence is a real philosophical advance--a huge step
forward in our ways of thinking about evidence."--Stathis Psillos,
Philosophy and Phenomenological Research
"Although this book is primarily directed toward philosophers and
historians of science, [it] is elegantly written and highly
accessible for scientists."--Journal of Mathematical Psychology
