  • Almost like new hardback setting out the case for using Bayesian probability statistics as a complementary methodological technique in history.

    Interesting methodological intervention in the realm of historical investigation - focusing on arguments for and against the historicity of Jesus - advocating the application of Bayesian probability statistics as a complementary procedure. Contents are set out in a clear and persuasive set of arguments within an almost new hardback edition.
