Statistical decision theory and Bayesian analysis. Principles and Theory for Data Mining and Machine Learning. Reminiscences of a Statistician. Couldn't really get into it at first reading, but will retry b/c recommendation by Jaynes. This discussion also reminds me of some statistical debates, where many statisticians have argued the need for a decision-theoretic approach to analysis.
