This book illustrates the rich contributions Pearl has made to the statistical literature and to our collective understanding of models for causal reasoning.' Stephen Fienberg, Maurice Falk University professor of Statistics and Social Science, Carnegie Mellon University||'The book is extremely well written, and while mathematically precise, provides a thought-provoking study of causality and its implications. Time and again I found myself disagreeing both with his assumptions and with his conclusions, but I was also fascinated by new insights into problems I thought I already understood well. Delving into electrical engineering, computer science and statistics, not to mention the philosophy of science, he. his work is always thought provoking and worth careful study. Winner of the Turing Award in 2011, Judea Pearl (1936) is a man of many talents. Save up to 80 versus print by going digital with VitalSource.

Due to his efforts, and that of a few others, a Renaissance in thinking and using causal concepts is taking place.' Patrick Suppes, Center for the Study of Language and Information, Stanford University||'Judea Pearl has come to statistics and causation with enthusiasm and creativity. Causality is written by Judea Pearl and published by Cambridge University Press. Judea pearl's book provides an attractive tour of recent work, in which he has played a central role, on causal models and causal reasoning. Causality-Judea Pearl Causality offers the first comprehensive coverage of causal analysis in many sciences, including recent advances using graphical methods. 'Without assuming much beyond elementary probability theory. Im by no means a person knowledgeable about causality, as my fuzzy understanding of the concept consists of partly common sense, common knowledge, some exposure to latent variable modeling and structural equation modeling (SEM) and reading a bit from Judea Pearls work on causality - not THE book of his, but more along the lines of an.
