Reviews

"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, ISIS
"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
