The School of Philosophy at the ANU gratefully acknowledges the support of the Thinking Trust Endowment for the Determinism, Probability and Conditionals workshop, held on 3 July, 2015. It was made possible by a generous donation from Brett and Cheryl Garvan, in memory of their father Kenneth. He was interested in determinism, and wrote a book on themes relating to it. Each of the speakers was given a copy, and another copy was placed in the Benjamin Library. We are grateful for those, too.

The workshop brough together speakers known internationally for their work on topics associated with the theme and the night was a success. See below for photos from the event.
