SIDELIGHTS: A.W.F. Edwards told CA: "My book Likelihood: An Account of the Statistical Concept of Likelihood and Its Application to Scientific Inference was born of a desire to tell the statistical world that, in its search for the philosophical basis of inference, it had been neglecting R.A. Fisher's concept of 'likelihood.'
1 de jun. de 2016 · In an earlier article on Punnett's square (Edwards, 2012) I referred to a letter that W. Bateson must have sent Francis Galton ‘some time in the summer of 1905 … a Punnett's square for the 64 offspring genotypes' resulting from some crosses during his and Punnett's study of flower colour in the sweet-pea (which, incidentally but importantly, led to their discovery of genetic linkage).

A. W. F. Edwards is, like John Venn before him, a fellow of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge. He is the author of Likelihood and Pascal's Arithmetical Triangle, both available from Johns Hopkins.

Abstract. In 1963 and 1964, L. L. Cavalli-Sforza and A. W. F. Edwards introduced novel methods for computing evolutionary trees from genetical data, initially for human populations from blood-group gene frequencies. The most important development was their introduction of statistical methods of estimation applied to stochastic models of evolution.
Edwards argues that the appropriate axiomatic basis for inductive inference is not that of probability, with its addition axiom, but that of likelihood, the concept introduced by Fisher as a measure of relative support among different hypotheses. Starting from the simplest considerations and assuming no more than a basic acquaintancewith ...
