Book Description
Did you know that if you drive ten miles to buy a Powerball ticket, you're sixteen times more likely to die in a car crash than you are to win the jackpot? Or that, while it is nearly impossible for a coin to land on heads one hundred times in a row, it is equally improbable for any other specific sequence to come up? As Orkin's Law of Absurdity states, "Everything is impossible, yet something must happen."
Full of surprising facts and useful information, What Are the Odds? is a delightful introduction to how chance works and the role it plays in our everyday lives. It answers such practical questions as:
* When is a weird event due to chance and when is it due to something else?
* Can you make a living as a gambler? If so, which games should you play?
* Are some things possible, but so unlikely that they will never happen?
* Should "Survival of the Fittest" apply to business?
* How do you determine which strategy to use when you have no ideas what your opponent will do?
* How can you be cooperative without being exploited?
A fun guide to the principles that govern chance and the games people play, whether in a casino or in everyday life, What Are the Odds? is guaranteed to entertain and enlighten anyone interested in the nature of chance. 75 illustrations.

Good intro to basic probability.......2004-06-02
Though subtitled, "Chance in Everyday Life," Orkin primarily uses gambling and war to discuss probability. The book starts off with a few chapters of basic probability, and Orkin uses several short passages to illustrate some of the common misconceptions many of us share about the role of chance.
The meat of the book, however, is concerned with gambling and war. Orkin gives entertaining explanations for the various odds associated with roulette, craps, slots, and blackjack. His reasoning is easy to understand and will hopefully disabuse gamblers of the notion of lucky streaks. Orkin then goes on to discuss spend a couple of chapters on zero-sum game theory and the prisoner's dilemma. He effectively uses examples involving two warring generals who must decide to attack, defend, cooperate, etc. when presented with various options and the payouts associated with them.
This book would have gotten 4 stars had it not been for the unnecessary last chapter where the author discusses zero-sum game theory with respect to the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia. Unfortunately, the chapter comes off less like a lesson in game theory, than an opportunity for Orkin to present his political views. Politics just doesn't belong this book.
This is a decent book and a short read. If anything, pick it up for the short discussions on gambling.
Odd book, variable content.......2003-11-25
This is a quirky book, but with lots of good information. The tone is often humorous, but ends with a serious topic. About half the book is spent looking at the house edge on roulette, craps, and slot machines. He presented a "winning strategy (almost)" for blackjack, however he does not include the calculation for the house edge there.
I thought the section on chance and chaos were excellent and I'd recommend to readers setting up the logistic difference equation of animal populations on a spreadsheet, to really demonstrate the effect of initial conditions. Contrary however to this strong section on biology, was a weak paragraph on evolution.
The later discussion on game theory was well done, looking at the Minimax criteria and the pay-off models. This chapter might have been enhanced by other strategies of decision, such as "avoiding regret". The final application of game theory to the Yugoslavian conflict was daring, and showed a different perspective about complex conflicts. Perhaps participants in Survivor, or other reality shows would benefit from this book.
Like an infomercial.......2003-08-24
This very thin book apparently contains the distilled wisdom of a statistics professor, whose only claim to fame is that he is called from time to time to help TV newscasters get some comment from an "expert."
Did you notice that all the "favourable" reviews sound as if they were written by an underpaid marketing intern? that's because no one really enjoyed this book, but the reviews have to be there to sell the book.
THE ODDS ARE IN YOUR FAVOR YOU'LL LOVE THIS TOME.......2003-05-25
Did you know that if you drive 10 miles to buy a Powerball ticket, you are 16 times more likely to die in a car crash than you are to win the jackpot? Or better yet, that if you buy
50 Powerball tickets a week, you will win --- once every 30,000 years? And how about this one: The chances of tossing a coin in the air and having it land heads up 100 times in a row are one in 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. (Thatýs 30 zeros, folks.) The odds of having a great time while reading this book: 100 percent. Guaranteed. Author Michael Orkin takes a different spin on life with this lively read, a compendium of chance
in everyday life. Ultimately, itýs a book about mathematical possibility --- and it adds up to great fun!
Good introduction to probability through gambling.......2000-09-05
Orkin write clearly for the novice and uses a minimal amount of mathematics. He provides clear explanations of games of chance including roulette and blackjack. The coverage on blackjack is particularly detailed and some of the anecdotes are very amusing. It is a little disappointing however since it promises examples from everyday life in the title but concentrates mainly on gambling and coincidence and does not offer much in the way of real problems. Some of the examples are overly simplistic. Still the discussion of gambling is interesting and there are many good references.
Book Description
Children from poor families generally do a lot worse than children from affluent families. They are more likely to develop behavior problems, to score lower on standardized tests, and to become adults in need of public assistance.
Susan Mayer asks whether income directly affects children's life chances, as many experts believe, or if the factors that cause parents to have low incomes also impede their children's life chances. She explores the question of causation with remarkable ingenuity. First, she compares the value of income from different sources to determine, for instance, if a dollar from welfare is as valuable as a dollar from wages. She then investigates whether parents' income after an event, such as teenage childbearing, can predict that event. If it can, this suggests that income is a proxy for unmeasured characteristics that affect both income and the event. Next she compares children living in states that pay high welfare benefits with children living in states with low benefits. Finally, she examines whether national income trends have the expected impact on children. Regardless of the research technique, the author finds that the effect of income on children's outcomes is smaller than many experts have thought.
Mayer then shows that the things families purchase as their income increases, such as cars and restaurant meals, seldom help children succeed. On the other hand, many of the things that do benefit children, such as books and educational outings, cost so little that their consumption depends on taste rather than income. Money alone, Mayer concludes, does not buy either the material or the psychological well-being that children require to succeed.

What Are the Odds: The Chances of Extraordinary Events in Everyday Life

Taking Chances: Winning with Probability
ASIN: 0801869412 |
Book Description
Our lives are governed by chance. But what, exactly, is chance? In this book, accomplished statistician and storyteller Bart K. Holland takes us on a tour of the world of probability. Weaving together tales from real life -- from the spread of the bubonic plague in medieval Europe or the number of Prussian cavalrymen kicked to death by their horses, through IQ test results and deaths by voodoo curse, to why you have to wait in line for rides at Disneyworld -- Holland captures the reader's imagination with surprising examples of probability in action, everyday events that can profoundly affect our lives but are controlled by just one number.
As Holland explains, even chance events are governed by the laws of probability and follow regular patterns called statistical laws. He shows how such laws are successfully applied, with great benefit, in fields as diverse as the insurance industry, the legal system, medical research, aerospace engineering, and climatology. Whether you have only a distant recollection of high school algebra or use differential equations every day, this book offers examples of the impact of chance that will amuse and astonish.
Customer Reviews:
Elementary introduction.......2003-02-15
The only useful item I found in this book was an explanation of how to calculate the average life span from a life table. The book explains the normal distribution and topics at that level. It also gives a rather superficial explanation of Black-Scholes option pricing.
Let's Figure the Odds.......2002-10-24
It has been shown that although any branch of mathematics can be difficult, people have a particular inherent difficulty with probability. It's easy to see an example of this: Las Vegas was built upon the fantasy that one might walk away from the tables richer than one started. Of course, it can happen, but even the fools about to be parted from their money know that the odds are against them. It makes little difference. We think we have an intrinsic understanding of probability, but we do not. A little book by statistician Bart K. Holland, _What Are the Chances?: Voodoo Deaths, Office Gossip, and Other Adventures in Probability_ (Johns Hopkins University Press) could improve understanding of some simple and some difficult matters in the laws of chance.
For instance, mathematicians evaluated the "Hot Hand" effect in basketball. Players and spectators knew that there were times when a shooter was having a good string of hits, an obvious run that demonstrated a flow of particular skill. But there weren't such runs; we are pattern-seeking creatures, and we can see patterns even in randomness, that is, when no pattern is there. What's more, we are very likely to think the pattern can be used as some sort of prediction. This is the basis of the classic "gambler's fallacy," that in a random indicator, what has gone before affects what will happen next. It "feels" right that if you toss a fair coin repeatedly and get ten heads in a row, that it is more likely that the next toss will be tails, but of course the coin has no memory of what has gone before. Probability plays a role in actuarial tables, and there is a brief, fascinating history of life insurance; it used to be sacrilegious to offer life insurance (but not, say, shipping delivery insurance) because only God was supposed to roll those dice. Holland also explains queuing theory basics, and answers the ultimate question: Why is my line for the supermarket check-out going so much slower than the others?
The Voodoo deaths in the subtitle come from epidemiologic studies (Holland is a professor of biostatistics and epidemiology) which show that that patients who believe themselves marked by death for a voodoo curse are actually at greater risk for dying (or at least getting sick). It can be shown, however, that nothing supernatural is happening. The hex only works if the victim and his family know about it and believe the voodoo priest has the power to do such a thing; in other words, it has a reverse placebo effect. The office gossip in the subtitle is a model of exponential spread, analogous to the spread of the plague, or to a nuclear chain reaction. Holland has picked amusing examples, both esoteric and from everyday life, to illustrate the way probability profoundly affects all of us. Chances are that any reader will be entertained and educated.
A good collection of statistics applications.......2002-06-17
I teach introductory business statistics, in addition to a variety of economics and finance courses at a regional campus of a state university. I was looking for some interesting, relevant applications/anecdotes to supplement a clearly written but rather terse textbook. I also wanted some new material to spice up my lectures. This book delivers. In principle, it can be read by someone who has never had a course in statistics, because it develops the subject from first principles, or should I say, first examples. In the course of the narrative, typical introductory textbook topics such as the nature of randomness, the binomial and normal probability distributions, and confidence intervals are covered. The exposition is self-contained, in that it includes mathematical expressions of the probability distributions. Unlike a textbook, however, it becomes clear that the examples drive the exposition of the statistics, not vice-versa. Some interesting examples require the development of distributions which are not generally taught in introductory courses, such the Poisson and even more advanced stochastic processes to model waiting times. No one but a mathematician will be able to completely absorb this advanced material, especially since it seems to be included more for completeness than with an expectation of comprehension by the reader. Also, as a financial economist, I was a bit disappointed by the treatment of random walks to model stock price behavior. While not generally incorrect, the exposition is not as lucid as if it had been written by, say, an econometrician. On the other hand, the main benefit I got from reading this book was a plethora of examples outside finance and economics--specifically, in epidemiology, which is the author's specialty. Although I would not recommend this book to anyone looking for a self-study textbook in the subject, I would highly recommend it for a student who is taking or has taken an introductory statistics class, as well as someone who is contemplating taking the subject and wants more motivation than a textbook will provide. Holland is a very erudite writer. After reading this book, nobody can legitimately claim that statistics is boring or irrelevant.
Book Description
Every day we are barraged with statistics about the chances of success and health risks, but to most of us all these numbers and percentages mean very little. If you're curious about how statistics can significantly impact your life, this lighthearted whirlwind tour of probability has everything you need.
Not only will you be amused by Jefferson Hane Weaver's many entertaining examples, but you'll actually learn how statistics work. Even the most math-phobic individual won't be able to resist delving into the many provocative topics covered, including the chances of: getting into an Ivy League school, finding the perfect mate, winning the lottery, engaging in a menage a trois, being audited, becoming a star, or dying on the job.
Weaver proves that statistics can be fun and that knowing the probabilities for any given situation can help you avoid risks and increase your chances of a successful and enjoyable life.
Customer Reviews:
Cute little book and nice read.......2007-05-19
This is a good book about a pretty interesting (and important) topic: probability and chance. I like the examples Weaver used and his presentation was good too.
Although he reports a lot of numbers and statistical figures (that's the point of the book), there isn't much math -- almost none, in fact. This might not be the best way to present this material if you want to understand the underlying math (one can argue it's being oversimplified) but here's the thing: most people are interested in the final numbers and the bottom line, and wouldn't mind some commentary to go along with it. This is exactly what Weaver does in this book: he presents a number of topics that most people can relate to, tells you about some interesting numbers, and provides a bit of explanation, some commentary, and a few jokes here and there.
In short you will like this book if you don't buy it expecting to get a rigorous mathematical explanation of, well, anything. Weaver never claims his book contains any math that is the least bit complicated, and so I think it's fair to say the content matches the description, and for that I give this book a good rating.
Needed a Numerate Editor.......2006-09-16
I don't like to have to inspect table and graphs of quantitative information for correctness and plausibility. Because I found that this book contained several simple errors of calculation, I found it hard to trust ANY of the "facts" reported.
Furtheremore, the author acknowledged no editor. Perhaps Prometheus Books did not provide one. Be skeptical of the quality of books published by Prometheus Books.
Clifford Pickor (author), Leon Lederman (Nobelist), and Barry Parker (author) provided blurbs for this inferior book. Unfortunately, this book does nothing to counter the belief that the law is a refuge for the clever innumerate. (J. J. Waeaver, the author, is an attorney.
What Are The Odds: The Chances of Extraordinary Events.......2002-02-09
This is one of the funniest and most informative books I've ever read about one of the most mundane and potentially boring topics ever. Jefferson Hane Weaver takes a "boring as watching paint dry" subject and makes it entertaining, informative and (believe it or not) a page-turner. Basically, I learned a littel bit about "Odds" and laughed my ass off in the process.
Well Done Mr. Weaver.

What Are the Odds? by Orkin.......2004-08-15
This book is a goldmine if you are seeking to beat the house
on a bet. The author provides practical strategies for
understanding randomness, the chaos theory and payoff matrices.
There is an extensive discussion on how the house wins and
the frequency of winnings. The book provides a transition
strategy for profiling chaos in a deterministic fashion.
It is a good value for readers interested in the practical
implementation of the laws of probability in everyday life.

The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable
ASIN: 0387987371 |
Book Description
(Not for distribution) We all know what randomness is. We sometimes choose between options "at random", and if we toss a coin we know it will land heads or tails at random. But are events like these truly random? Randomness turns out to be one of those concepts, like "solid matter" in physics, that works just fine on an everyday level but mysteriously disappears once we move in to examine its fine structure. In this fascinating book, mathematician Ed Beltrami takes a close enough look at randomness to make it mysteriously disappear. The results of coin tosses, it turns out, are determined from the start, and only our incomplete knowledge makes them look random. "Random" sequences of numbers are more elusive--they may be truly random, but Godel's undecidability theorem informs us that we'll never know. Their apparent randomness may be only a shortcoming of our minds. Mathematicians have even discovered a string of numbers that appears random--but when you reverse the string, it's completely deterministic! People familiar with quantum indeterminacy tell us that order is an illusion, and that the world is fundamentally random. Yet randomness is also an illusion. Then which is real? Perhaps order and randomness, like waves and particles, are only two sides of the same coin.
Customer Reviews:
interesting, but pedagogically feeble.......2005-10-17
This book is contains a fairly substantial (from the layman's point of view) discussion of randomness. It discusses the fundamentals of probability, information/entropy, etc. It ends with an appendix of "technical notes", an appendix on binary notation and 6 pages of references. But it has no exercises, and presents its material as if the layman could assimilate it by simple passive reading. Not so. You need a paper and pencil. You need to manufacture exercises to master or even understand the material. I am comfortable with algebra and basic calculus, but got lost and gave up after a couple of chapters (I did not break out pencil and paper).
If you are not mathematically sophisticated enough to just "get it" by reading, I suggest you buy a real textbook, where the author is actually makes a commitment to teaching, rather than mere exposition.
Excellent explanations of probabilities.......2002-07-17
This is an excellent study of what randomness means, particularly in Beltrami's treatment of averages.
Statistically indistinguishable from blather........2001-01-25
There's this thing in the jacket blurb for this book about how maybe a guy gets a phone call & takes off down the sidewalk and then a hammer falls out of a nearby window and lands on his head and this is just the fickle, unpredictable hand of chance... OR IS IT? Now, to whatever associate editor came up with that, kudos, b/c it's the type of maybe-there's-something-going-on-behind-the-scenes hook that makes you want to snap the thing off the shelf. Unfortunately, if you read it, you'll find that there's no insight at all re: the phone call-hammer issue. Instead you get a brief intro to probability theory, a not-too-adept description of testing for randomness in binary strings, and some disjointed thoughts on entropy, number theory, and the ilk. There are a few tidbits here that may be of interest to math buffs, but the inquisitive layman looking to expose the hidden patterns of the universe will be disappointed.
RANDOM AND CONFUSING THOUGHTS.......2000-07-19
A well meaning, but totally sloppy book -- botn in writing style and clarity of thought. Interesting for the range of topics it suggests relate to its subject, although its coverage of them is aweful. It is somewhat useful for the references it offers, in case the frustrated reader is still interested enough in the topics to try and make up for the book's own failures by reading up on them elsewhere. As for the rest, it is hard to follow and confusing on all but the most elementary points.
Nothing new here.......2000-03-04
Beltrami's newest is a comprehensive view of randomness without ever coming to grips with any meaning of the concept. Sure, definitions are given, but simply the usual algorithmic so prevalent in recent popular works on computers. The interesting binary-string examples are in no way random in any intuitive sense of the word; they merely serve to illustrate his somewhat prolix text. If you are new to this field, these ideas, and the development of algorithmic "randomness", then this is an outstanding book and to be recommended highly. If you are looking for something beyond the semantically sterile notions of reductionist randomness, then this book will leave you wondering why you bothered reading it.

The probabilities that a randomly selected person will have a particular experience.......2006-08-29
The modern person is bombarded with statistics, some of which are false, some true in a very narrow and hence unusable sense, others which are true but misleadingly so and the remainder which are provably true. This book is a collection of the probabilities of events occurring to a randomly selected person.
Examples include:
*) If I am a college student, what is the probability that I will cheat on a test?
*) What are the chances that I will grow up incompetent in reading/writing or in math?
*) What are the chances that my hysterectomy wasn't necessary?
*) What are the chances that I will marry a woman of another race?
*) Which dogs are most likely to bite?
*) Is it riskier to drive in Spain or Japan?
*) If I drive a lot, on which day of the week is it most important that I wear clean underwear?
As the last question indicates, some of the questions are humorous in nature. The authors have gone to great lengths to try to cover some of the "old wives tales" areas.
I got a great deal of enjoyment out of reading this book. Some of the facts were surprising, some hard to believe, but all of them were interesting to read and ponder. Clearly, the authors did a great deal of research in developing this book and I commend them for their explorations into the world of unusual facts.
It's fluff :).......2003-05-30
I really did enjoy this book, but was very surpised to find out that it did not contain a single citation. I don't know how a book like this, filled with statistics, gets into print without a single source listed. I teach introductory statistics and was hoping to get some "fun" numbers to share with my classes, but without the citations, it is unusable.
Fascinating book with a lot of fun trivia.......1999-10-30
I really enjoyed this book as pure entertainment! Knowing that I am more likely to be on The Tonight Show than be struck by lightning is quite comforting! At turns, shocking and silly this book is just plain and simple fun!
