Sneaky, huh? Responding to my own post!
It just occurred to me that one way to characterize
something of the style of representation (i.e., an "axiomatic"
description of PCT) to which I had alluded earlier, might be
found in Mario Zanotti's own writings. Here is an item in the
Fall 1996 mailing from the Cambridge Univerisity Press
that may point to an example...

Foundations of Probability
with Applications
Selected Papers 1974-1995

This is an important collection of essays on
dealing with the foundations of probability
that will be of value to philosophers of
science, mathematicians, statisticians,
psychologists and educationalists. The
collection falls into three parts: Part I
comprises five essays on the axiomatic
foundations of probability. Part II contains
seven articles on probabilistic causality and
quantum mechanics, with an emphasis on
the existence of hidden variables. The third
part consists of a single extended essay
applying probabilistic theories of learning
to practical questions of education: it
incorporates extensive data analysis.
