SummaryA standard technique in subjective “Bayesian” methodology is for a subject (“you”) to make judgements of the probabilities that a physical probability lies in various intervals. In the hierarchical Bayesian technique you make probability judgements (of a higher type, order, level, or stage) concerning the judgements of lower type. The paper will outlinesome of the history of this hierarchical technique with emphasis on the contributions by I. J. Good because I have read every word written by him.
