520 _a"Mathematics is focused on formal manipulation of abstract concepts, while statistics deals with real-world data and involves a higher degree of subjectivity due to the role of interpretation. Interpretation is shaped by context as well as the knowledge, biases, assumptions or preconceptions of the interpreter, leading to a variety of potential interpretations of concepts as well as results. This book thoroughly examines the distinct philosophical approaches to statistics--Bayesian, frequentist, and likelihood--arising from different interpretations of probability and uncertainty. These differences are highlighted through a variety of puzzles and paradoxes"--
