TL;DR
Fisher's theory is a likelihood-based theory, proposed as an alternative to the then-popular Bayesian theory of Laplace, where much attention was given to sufficiency, efficiency, and information.
Abstract
In previous lectures we have examined aspects of Fisher's theory of statistical estimation, where much attention was given to sufficiency, efficiency, and information. In essence the theory is a likelihood-based theory, proposed as an alternative to the then-popular Bayesian theory of Laplace.
