Anthropic Bias

Book • 2002
Anthropic Bias delves into the challenges of reasoning when evidence is filtered by the need for an observer.

It covers various domains, including cosmology, evolutionary theory, and quantum physics, and presents a synthesis to address these biases using the Self Sampling Assumption and Bayesian reasoning.

The book examines philosophical thought experiments like the Doomsday Argument and applies its principles to diverse scientific and philosophical issues.
