This audiobook will teach you everything you need to know about probability in order to use it to your advantage. We shall start by exploring the very theory of probability and, later on, we shall discuss about the important role it plays in the fields of mathematics and science. Of course, we cannot even begin to think about probability without also considering the statistics and the inductive inferences. Therefore, we shall also approach these matters.

Statistics are everywhere, as integral to science as they are to business, and in the popular media hundreds of times a day. In this age of big data, a basic grasp of statistical literacy is more important than ever if we want to separate the fact from the fiction, the ostentatious embellishments from the raw evidence - and even more so if we hope to participate in the future, rather than being simple bystanders.

Recent years have seen the introduction of concepts from the new and exciting field of complexity science that have captivated the attention of economists, sociologists, engineers, businesspeople, and many others. These include tipping points, the wisdom of crowds, six degrees of separation (or Kevin Bacon), and emergence. Complexity science can shed light on why businesses or economies succeed and fail, how epidemics spread and can be stopped, and what causes ecological systems to rebalance themselves after a disaster.

From batting averages and political polls to game shows and medical research, the real-world application of statistics continues to grow by leaps and bounds. How can we catch schools that cheat on standardized tests? How does Netflix know which movies you'll like? What is causing the rising incidence of autism? As best-selling author Charles Wheelan shows us in Naked Statistics, the right data and a few well-chosen statistical tools can help us answer these questions and more.

Darrell Huff's celebrated classic How to Lie With Statistics is a straightforward and engaging guide to understanding the manipulation and misrepresentation of information that could be lurking behind every graph, chart, and infographic. Originally published in 1954, it remains as relevant and necessary as ever in our digital world, where information is king - and as easy to distort and manipulate as it is to access.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,286
In Super Bowl XLIX, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll made one of the most controversial calls in football history: With 26 seconds remaining, and trailing by four at the Patriots' one-yard line, he called for a pass instead of a handing off to his star running back. The pass was intercepted, and the Seahawks lost. Critics called it the dumbest play in history. But was the call really that bad? Or did Carroll actually make a great move that was ruined by bad luck? Even the best decision doesn't yield the best outcome every time.

Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

Top of the Don't buy list
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
How do you follow some one reading math fast. Not even worth the $5. the examples are interesting, but available everywhere for free. I bought the Kindle book for $3 just to be able to follow the narration and its still too fast.The author is just throwing something together to make a fast buck. I don't trust him to produce usable content and will never buy him again.
What could Duo Code have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Audio requires you to explain the examples with prose to give the listener time to digest.Your book is just a fast chance to make a buck and you got it from me, but now I will NEVER read anything by you again.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
take a breath
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Probability?
take it off the shelves
Any additional comments?
Audible needs to vet offerings for content, not everything has value in audio and there's an expanding amount of garbage in their system. Since I can't return something I've listened to and I can't judge something for overall content on a one minute sample, its very much buyer beware, but the only option for the customer is to not buy anything. I was in a hurry and made the purchase on my phone and mistakenly used a credit to buy a $5 audio book that isn't worth $5 and is free to read on Kindle.
