This book is ideal for anyone who likes puzzles, brainteasers, games, gambling, magic tricks, and those who want to apply math and science to everyday circumstances. Several hacks in the first chapter alone-such as the "central limit theorem, ", which allows you to know everything by knowing just a little-serve as sound approaches for marketing and other business objectives.
