Part of the bestselling Very Short Introductions series - over five million copies sold worldwide
Making good decisions under conditions of uncertainty - which is the norm - requires a sound appreciation of the way random chance works. As analysis and modelling of most aspects of the world, and all measurement, are necessarily imprecise and involve uncertainties of varying degrees, the understanding and management of probabilities is central to much work in the sciences and economics.
In this Very Short Introduction, John Haigh introduces the ideas of probability and different philosophical approaches to probability, and gives a brief account of the history of development of probability theory, from Galileo and Pascal to Bayes, Laplace, Poisson, and Markov. He describes the basic probability distributions, and goes on to discuss a wide range of applications in science, economics, and a variety of other contexts such as games and betting. He concludes with an intriguing discussion of coincidences and some curious paradoxes.
Readership: General readers interested in popular mathematics. A useful introduction to a fundamentally important topic for students of mathematics and science.

评分interesting examples. and very brief introductions. But I'm still not familiar with the concepts of various kinds of distribution. like poisson, binomial...etc. so more specific more detailed more technique books are in need.
