The "foundations" of statistics is a broad topic (no pun intended) and can mean different things to different people. If you'd like a quick overview/ comparison of different schools of statistical inference, you might try Barnett's Comparative Statistical Inference (Wiley). If your interest is more in the area of probability, try Kyburg and Smokler (eds) Studies in Subjective Probability (Wiley, sold to Krieger).
