Gregory Lavers was a kind philosopher, interested in logic, math, and language. I met him when he came to Bogotá for the first edition of PHILOGICA in 2009. He came back a few times and became good friends with Arnold Koslow, my doctoral supervisor, who passed away last year. Very sad news.

My book with Kyle Rozema was just published! Our goal was to explain empirical methods and causal inference without jargon or equations. We geared it to law students and lawyers, but it should be a great intro for anyone interested in the topic. Check it out here: www.amazon.com/Trial-Number...
