Inhaltsangabe

Discusses the misconceptions and difficulties civilization overcame in progressing toward probabilistic thinking. The author traces the journey from a correct intuition of chance to a formal notion of probability through an individual trying to come to grips with concepts of uncertainty and fairness. She charts the parallel course by which societies have developed ideas about randomness and determinancy. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
