Some Interesting Processes

In this final chapter we consider three independent topics, each of substantial interest in its own right: information theory, dynamic optimization and quantum theory. The first two constitute applications of the theory as we have developed it. In the case of quantum theory it is a question of studying the radical variant of probability which the quantum world seems to require. However, for all its fundamental differences, this theory is also based on expectation axioms very close to those with which we began our exposition of the classical theory in Chapter 2.
