It will not mean as rich as the money give you. When some people have lack to face the life, people with many books sometimeswill be wiser in doing the life. Why should be book? It is actually not meant that book will give you power to reach everything.

By exploring games of chance, this text gives students a greater understanding of probability. It helps them develop the intuition necessary to make better, more informed decisions in strategic situations involving risk.
It also prepares them to study the world of statistics. A greater understanding of probability can help develop the intuition necessary to approach risk with the ability to make more informed and better decisions. The first four chapters offer the standard content for an introductory probability course, albeit presented in a much different way and order. The chapters afterward include some discussion of different games, different "ideas" that relate to the law of large numbers, and many more mathematical topics not typically seen in such a book.
The use of games is meant to make the book and course feel like fun! Since many of the early games discussed are casino games, the study of those games, along with an understanding of the material in later chapters, should remind you that gambling is a bad idea; you should think of placing bets in a casino as paying for entertainment.
Winning can, obviously, be a fun reward, but should not ever be expected. Reorganization has been done to improve the flow of topics and learning. New sections on Arkham Horror, Uno, and Scrabble have been added. Even more exercises were added! The goal for this textbook is to complement the inquiry-based learning movement.
In my mind, concepts and ideas will stick with the reader more when they are motivated in an interesting way. Here, we use questions about various games not just casino games to motivate the mathematics, and I would say that the writing emphasizes a "just-in-time" mathematics approach.
Topics are presented mathematically as questions about the games themselves are posed. Table of Contents Preface 1. Mathematics and Probability 2. Roulette and Craps: Expected Value 3.
