A First Course in Probability 8th Edition by Sheldon Ross ISBN-13: 9780136033134 ISBN-10: 013603313XWe see that the theory of probability is at bottom only common sense reducedto calculation; it makes us appreciate with exactitude what reasonable minds feelby a sort of instinct, often without being able to account for it. . . . It is remarkablethat this science, which originated in the consideration of games of chance, shouldhave become the most important object of human knowledge. . . . The most importantquestions of life are, for the most part, really only problems of probability.? So saidthe famous French mathematician and astronomer (the ?Newton of France?) Pierre-Simon, Marquis de Laplace. Although many people feel that the famous marquis,who was also one of the great contributors to the development of probability, mighthave exaggerated somewhat, it is nevertheless true that probability theory has becomea tool of fundamental importance to nearly all scientists, engineers, medical practitioners,jurists, and industrialists. In fact, the enlightened individual had learned toask not ?Is it so?? but rather ?What is the probability that it is so??
