Sinopse

Gambling Probability explores the intersection of science and economics in casino games, revealing how probability theory governs outcomes and the house edge ensures casino profitability. It highlights the application of statistical analysis to betting strategies, offering insights into risk management.

 
One intriguing fact is how the house edge, though seemingly small, guarantees long-term gains for casinos. Another is that understanding expected value and variance can empower players to make more informed decisions, even if it cannot overcome the house advantage.

 
This book progresses logically, starting with basic probability concepts and their applications to simple games. It then delves into the complexities of the house edge in various casino games like dice, cards, and roulette.

 
The book advances into statistical methods for risk management and concludes with advanced betting strategies and the economic impact of the gambling industry.

 
The approach emphasizes clarity and precision, using mathematical models and real-world data to make complex concepts accessible.

    Moving is no fun. Neither is getting rid of stuff. And both jobs get harder as we get older. So, when those over a certain age—say, in the last third of life—are looking to downsize and move all at the same time, many will conclude, "I'll just stay put, thank you very much." It's not just the acquired possessions holding them back, but also the intangibles. Their memories, their family history, their identities are all in jeopardy, they think. And yet, that reluctance to move on is commonly all that stands between them and a better life. 
     
     
     
    Rightsize Today to Create Your Best Life Tomorrow will help this group of root-bound home dwellers cross the bridge between stuck in the past and a lighter, better future. It will encourage them to embrace the fact that now, when they're no longer tethered to a school system or to a job they need to be near, is their chance to live where they want to live. 
     
     
     
    Included are enlightening profiles of those who proactively changed their housing in the last third of their life. Whether they moved to a smaller place, remodeled their existing home, or even moved to a larger home; whether they moved to a new city, to a senior community, or to a new home in the same neighborhood, they all reimagined their lives, re-evaluated their belongings, and made a move toward a better and possibly their best life yet.

    A searing analysis of health and illness under capitalism from hosts of the hit podcast Death Panel 
     
     
     
    Written by cohosts of the hit Death Panel podcast and longtime disability justice and healthcare activists Beatrice Adler-Bolton and Artie, Health Communism first examines how capital has instrumentalized health, disability, madness, and illness to create a class seen as "surplus," regarded as a fiscal and social burden. Demarcating the healthy from the surplus, the worker from the "unfit" to work, the authors argue, serves not only to undermine solidarity but to mark whole populations for extraction by the industries that have emerged to manage and contain this "surplus" population. Health Communism then looks to the grave threat capital poses to global public health, and at the rare movements around the world that have successfully challenged the extractive economy of health. 
     
     
     
    Ultimately, Adler-Bolton and Vierkant argue, we will not succeed in defeating capitalism until we sever health from capital. To do this will require a radical new politics of solidarity that centers the surplus, built on an understanding that we must not base the value of human life on one's willingness or ability to be productive within the current political economy. Capital, it turns out, only fears health.
