Brilliant exposition of personalist (subjective) probabilty 17 Dec 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Savage rigorously reworks the approach of Frank Plumpton Ramsey to give us a personalist (subjectivist) probability construct, and uses this to found a theory of statistics. Even many of us who disagree strongly with Savage are greatly impressed by this remarkable work.

Unbelievably Good 21 Mar 2009
By Charles Saunders - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
One of the earliest books/texts to present the Bayesian paradigm. You need at least three semesters of calculus to do the math - Savage was one of the statisticians who worked on the Manhattan Project and this text is very rigorous.

Difficult and interesting 17 May 2010
By MRM - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is not an easy book, but it is worth reading if you want to get a particular perspective on "the foundations of statistics".
