Review of 'Fooled by Randomness' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Very good book and well worth a read. I love the combination of science background and good stories that help explain the matter. I wouldn't expect too much hard science background on randomness or probability theory, because the book is more an entertaining and story-telling kind of thing which can make you laugh and show interesting facts. Apart from that, I don't like the author's denunciation of Hegel and Marx without any valid arguments.
