### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    very readable introduction to probability
  

*by J***K on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2023*

This is a very readable, brief intro to probability and how it isused to evaluate chance outcomes in many situations.It is written at the level of undergraduate mathematics.The author has a very readable style and does a good jobof explaining complex concepts. Some of the topicscovered include the Monty Hall problem, winning thelottery (or trying to), games (e.g. roulette, dice),the monkey-typewriter problem, conditional probability,Poisson processes, central limit theorem, Baye's formula,random numbers and walks, Monte Carlo methods, and more.There are only a few diagrams in the book and I thought morewould have improved the  book. There are exercises at the endof each chapter (with answers given in the back)  and a short bibliography (35 references).The book arrived on time and was in very goodcondition. However the book was packaged only in thinshrink wrap with no other protection. Fortunately it wasnot damaged during shipment.

    Great content, kindle version has issues
  

*by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2012*

As a warning I have only used the kindle version, as this was my first experiment in using the kindle for a reference book.While the content and examples presented are great, the formatting on the kindle suffers from several problems, mainly when presenting formulas.  They mistakenly have C instead of subset operators, leave off multiplication dots between numbers, etc.  When there aren't mistakes in the format they suffer from some fairly obviously low res images for the formulas.I cannot compare this with the print version but I have not ever found a print book with all of these problems.I would be curious to know if this problem exists in many of the books or its specific to only this one.  In any case be warned.So on content I give this 4 stars.  On ebook presentation I would probably give it 2.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Lively introduction to the world of probability
  

*by I***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2021*

The author invites the reader visit the world of probability and statistics throughout interesting examples and stories. The book has many interesting motivating insights.
