The Simple Sorcerer's Illustrated Probability Primer Lin Sten

This book offers a new approach to an old subject. Brevity, color, and characters bring to life the fundamentals of probability--concepts and symbolism--to make this important subject accessible to everyone. This book arose from materials prepared by the author for students who had read but not sufficiently understood their textbooks. It is unique in that each chapter consists of one page of text and a facing page of illustrations. The text is supported by cartoon characters discussing particular issues--an evolution in the aproach to fun learning. This book can be used by beginning students or as an excellent review and supplement for more advanced students. For students who may have been away from arithmetic for awhile, a fraction review is given in the appendix. Useful real life applications are included. Parents, students, and teachers will find this book worthwhile.
