Strict Bayesians insist that probability judgment is numerically determinate even though the agent can represent such judgments only in imprecise terms. According to Quasi Bayesians rational agents may make indeterminate subjective probability judgments. Both kinds of Bay...

This chapter presents a history of observations that crystallization can go well beyond the simple ‘expected’ behaviour found in the salt cellar or when you buy a chemical. Biomorphs, crystal gardens, ‘crystal souls’, but also the remarkable pattern and structures of biominerals made researchers think that there is something beyond the concept of the bare three-dimensional regularity of molecul...
