Paradoxes are poems of science and philosophy that collectively allow us to address broad multidisciplinary issues within a microcosm. A true paradox is a source of creativity and a concise expression that delivers a profound idea and provokes a wild and endless imagination. The study of paradoxes leads to ultimate clarity and, at the same time, indisputably challenges your mind.
Paradoxes in Scientific Inference analyzes paradoxes from many different perspectives: statistics, mathematics, philosophy, science, artificial intelligence, and more. The book elaborates on findings and reaches new and exciting conclusions. It challenges your knowledge, intuition, and conventional wisdom, compelling you to adjust your way of thinking. Ultimately, you will learn effective scientific inference through studying the paradoxes.

Industry Reviews

"... an excellent book discussing the principles of scientific inference for readers with various backgrounds. Paradoxes are seen sporadically in different occasions; a systematic review in this book may reshape the reader's brain, as the author warns, and, at the very least, provides a fresh view of scientific philosophy."
-Gang Li, Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics, 24, 2014

"This is a very, very entertaining book. It is extremely well written, extremely clear, and very highly recommended."
-Norman R. Draper, International Statistical Review (2013), 81

"... the brisk pace makes the pages turn easily and the book is fun ..."
-Sandra Z. Keith, MAA Reviews, April 2013
