Books on Amazon | Lewis V 153 Definition robust/Jackson/Lewis: A is robust in relation to B, (with respect to one's subjective probability at a time) iff. the probability of A and the probability of A conditional to B are close to each other, and both are high,... --- V 154 ...so if one learns that B, still considers A probable.
