Here are mathematical formulae for outwitting Lady Luck- the tried and true means by which scientists have come to understand and put to use THE LAWS OF CHANCE.
In this book Irving Adler, author of The New Mathematics, sets forth the fundamentals of probability theory. He also explains the statistical concepts of expectation, deviation, and correlation, and shows how these concepts can be used in such diverse activities as genetics, medicine, astronomy....and poker.
Mr Adler describes random variables, probability functions, the Bernoulli distribution, Chebyshev's inequality in language that the general reader can easily understand. In short, he shows you how to conquer the realm of paradox, how to predict the unpredictable.
