Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 266 pages. For you to be here today reading this requires a mind-boggling series of lucky b reaks, starting with the Big Bang and ending in your own conception. So it's not surprising that we persist in thinking that we're in with a chance, whether we' re playing the lottery or working out the likelihood of extra-terrestrial life. In Chance, a (not entirely) random selection of the New Scientist's sharpest min ds provide fascinating insights into luck, randomness, risk and probability. Fro m the secrets of coincidence to placing the perfect bet, the science of random n umber generation to the surprisingly haphazard decisions of criminal juries, it will explore these, and many other, tantalising questions. Following on from the bestselling Nothing and Question Everything, this book will open your eyes to t he weird and wonderful world of chance - and help you see when some things, in f act, aren't random at all.
