November 29, 2001 Duty and Famine: Singer Last time we considered Mill's version of Utilitarianism, called Eudaimonistic Utilitarianism characterized by what he calls \the greatest-happiness principle\: You ought always to act so as to maximize happiness, i.e., the right act is the act that results in the greatest amount of happiness overall. The \greatest-happiness principle\, however, just states one version of Utilitarianism. Other versions of

Moral Luck One of the important themes in the freewill debate is the idea that freedom is necessary for moral responsibility. In effect, if hard determinism is the correct view, then we should not hold ourselves or others morally responsible. Libertarians, in particular, seem to hold that in order to be responsible for an act, we must be its \sole author. Here is the principle at issue: Control Principle: You are only responsible for what you have control over. If you steal an axe from my garage and use it to break into a gas station, there's no point in holding me responsible, I didn't

24.00: Problems of Philosophy Prof. Sally Haslanger November 7, 2001 Freewill IlI: Libertarianism I. Recap: Compatibilism v. Incompatibilism Hard determinism is the view that determinis is true and that because of this freedom is an illusion. The libertarian agrees with the hard determinist that freewill is incompatible with determinism, but disagrees about which claim should be rejected. The libertarian holds that we have free will, but this is only because determinism is false-free acts occur and are undetermined. The hard determinist and the libertarian are both incompatibilists. Soft determinism, also known as compatibilism, maintains that determinism is true, but also that determinism is

一、随机试验与事件 I.随机试验 1.随机试验把对某种随机现象的一次 观察、观测或测量等称为一个试验。如果 这个试验在相同的条件下可以重复进行, 且每次试验的结果事前不可预知,则称此 试验为随机试验,也简称为试验,记为E 注:以后所提到的试验均指随机试验

I. Racist Propositions Appiah distinguishes three importantly different ideas relevant to race and racism: Racialism: ...there are heritable characteristics, possessed by members of our species, that allow us to divide them into a small set of races, in such a way that all the members of these races share certain traits and tendencies with each other that they do not share with members of any other race. These traits and tendencies characteristic of a race constitute, on the racialist view, a sort of racial essence; and it is part of the content of racialism that the essential

I.什么是古典概率模型 如果试验E满足 (1)试验结果只有有限种, (2)每种结果发生的可能性相同。 则称这样的试验模型为等可能概率模型或 古典概率模型,简称为等可能概型或古典 概型

4.1向量及其运算 1.向量:n个数a1,a2,an构成的有序数组,记作a=(a1,a2,an), 称为n维行向量 a称为向量a的第i个分量 a;∈R称a为实向量(下面主要讨论实向量) a∈C称a为复向量

圈闭和油气藏的分类既是油气藏形成的基本理论的必要部分,也是勘探和开发的需 要。各国石油地质学家提出了很多关于油气藏分类的方案。有苏联石油地质学家H..布 罗德以储层形态为依据的分类;苏联石油地质学家.中.米尔钦科提出的以圈闭成因为 主、以油气藏形态为辅的分类;美国石油地质学家A.I莱复生根据圈闭成因提出的分类等 等
