That's a Possibility! A Book About What Might Happen

Do you like to play skittles, throw dice or try your luck? Could maths help you win? Maybe. You see, it’s all about possibility. As you’ve likely figured out, not all possibilities are equally likely to happen. Will finish your homework today? Maybe. Will you win a million dollars? If you’re very lucky. Will you grow shorter? Errr… definitely NOT. In maths, measuring those chances is called ‘probability’. This book shows you how it works in big colour photos and easy examples. Then you can use it to your advantage – for example, you can predict whether a bet is winnable. Could a maths book ever be exciting? That’s a big loud YES.
