Struck By Lightning: The curious world of Probabilities
1 journaler for this copy...
I read this for Harper Collins Canada's First Look program.
Struck By Lightning does a fantastic job of making probability accessible to non-math geeks. This would have been a great one to accompany my statistics course in university! While at times Rosenthal seems to get a little too caught up in explaining all the numbers and equations, this book is highly readable and enjoyable. I especially enjoyed the little "final exam" at the end!
