Probability is a fascinating branch of mathematics that is indispensable to statistical literacy and basic logical thinking. In modern society it is necessary to be able to analyze probability claims in the media and to make informed judgments and decisions. This book provides a basic knowledge of probability theory and reasoning, and illustrates it with many colorful everyday situations involving uncertainty. The book is primarily written for high school and college students learning about probability for the first time. In a highly accessible way, a modern treatment of the subject is given with emphasis on conditional probability and Bayesian probability, on striking applications of the Poisson distribution, and on the interface between probability and computer simulation.
