Additional information

It is a pleasure to record here my indebtedness to Patrick Suppes for numerous instructive conversations on ‘quantum algebras’ and for his great interest in this work. Thanks are also due to Terrence Fine, Richard Jeffrey, and Joseph Sneed for many stimulating discussions concerning the foundations of probability.
