Probably Not: Future Prediction Using Probability and Statistical Inference
Probably Not is organized around easy-to-follow examples that address the role of probability and statistics in real-life situations. Fun-to-solve problems including "the shared birthday" and "the prize behind door number one, two, or three" are found throughout the book, which allow readers to test and practice their new probability skills. Requiring little background knowledge of mathematics, readers will gain a greater understanding of the everyday activities that involve random processes and statistics.
