Welcome to Litsy!

Interesting for people that love math and how it drives our lives.

Check out this fun #randomgiveaway by the awesome @Trashcanman

See his original post for the random details.

A fascinating look at chance and probability, and how it affects our lives in big ways and small. I admit there were time when the math had my brain hurting, mathematics was always my worst subject in school, but overall it was an enjoyable read.

I just started this, but so far it's been totally fascinating. It's the perfect book to give those people who tell you everything happens for a reason.

1. No clue about the tagged book and I can‘t think of one otherwise
2. Hmm... usually a margarita
3. I hate dancing but my old 80s music still gets me moving. I just wouldn‘t call that movement dancing 😂
4. Shopping cart

#fridayfrigesday but of course I‘m late so #betterlatethannever

@dariazeoli Thank you so much for your #whodunitdoeschristmas gifts and the wonderful card. Everything from the books you picked to the socks and nail polish, the notepad and the mug filled with tea were so thoughtful and spot-on that it brought tears to my eyes. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Have a wonderful holiday season! 🤗❤️ and @Tiffy_Reads - thanks for all you do to make this group so special!

My small but growing collection of #space (and related science) books. This is a new fascination I could never have predicted but I love it #30daysofreadathon

Two science books in one day? That's a book haul I couldn't have predicted a couple of years ago!

Just started yesterday. So far, very interesting!!

The appeal of many conspiracy theories depends on the misunderstanding of this logic. That is, it depends on confusing the probability that a series of events would happen if it were the product of a huge conspiracy with the probability that a huge conspiracy exists if a series of events occurs.

As someone who is crap at maths I was worried that I would be bored by endless formulae and confusing graphs. Really there is very little of that. Mostly the book is about the history of how we've come to realize that life is kind of random most of the time. Recommended for those who like to know the etymology of things, randomness, and tips on winning in a casino.

I don't claim to understand the formulas, but understand the theories and applications. So, for those who aren't fond or are kicked in the arse by maths, it completely readable. His sense of humour helps a great deal.

Would be interesting to find out just how much scientific/mathematical reasoning evolved from drunken nights at a casino.

The workplace book group is floundering even with the last business related selection being a collection of comic strips. So decided to change it up and get scientific.
