| Abstract: | This note is a postscript to Ramsey's 'Truth and Probability'. It replaces that article's psychological reading of subjective probability with a reading of it as a consistency condition on the theory that we act to maximise expected utility. |

Braithwaite after Ramsey's death in 1930, in preparing it for publication. The note, which is now out of copyright, is republished in F. P. Ramsey: Philosophical Papers, edited by D. H. Mellor, Cambridge: Cambridge Unversity Press, 1990, pp. 95-6. |
