✦ Synopsis
Each of the seventeen chapters is written according to the same pattern. New theoretical ideas and theorems are introduced, proven where necessary, and then followed with numerous applications from many fields including sociology, medicine, biology, and games of chance. Each chapter closes with a series of problems which serve as additional illustrative text material. Answers to most of the 340 problems are included.
Aside from mathematicians, physicists and other scientists who encounter problems in modern communications theory, modern physics, and the probabilistic aspects of the biological sciences will find much reference material in this volume. Needless to say, the book can be used as a valuable reference work for professional and amateur gamblers.
