Description

Messrs Cause and Effect have been badly hit by the new Law of Disorder. And the world as we know it-and don't we know it? - has become reasonably random.

What's your favourite gamble? Viewing the antics of molecules on an electronic computer, or just whiling away the long winter evenings with Russian Roulette? Dice, dogs, pools, poker, medical research, or meteorology....it's all the same. You're flirting with Miss Chance, and the lady's seldom pure.

Score showed you how to step up your I.Q. How to Lie with Statistics shook the pollsters and marketeers. Now in How to Take a Chance Darrell Huff shows us all how to calculate our risks.

Yes. The Delphic Oracle has certainly moved to Monte Carlo.
