The Doomsday Argument uses basic probability theory to give a forecast about how many more humans will exist by factoring in the number of humans that have already existed. Proponents of the argument suggest that it would be improbable for us to find ourselves somewhere near the start of the total existence of humankind. \u003cbr\u003eTo this day, the prevailing consensus amongst those actively writing about the DA is that it still remains unrefuted, despite innumerable attempts in the literature to debunk it. This book provides a critical assessment of the use of thought-experiments in DA rebuttals and argues that testing the DA empirically could yield more fruitful results.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sasha Zouev\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1916345166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781916345164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Zouev Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/14\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.50d","brand":"Sasha Zouev","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44131694477567,"sku":"9781916345164","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6f640ad2-982e-4cf5-9e35-0e6b9edaa7e8.jpg?v=1687475869","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thinking-about-doom-sasha-zouev-9781916345164","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
