Content introduction
This book is a mathematical method to understand the random phenomena of the map class knowledge of the universal reading book. Possibility, uncertainty, unpredictability of the future, chaos theory... Chance is always with people's life. In this book, mathematicians demysify probability in an easy-to-understand way, helping us further understand what prediction, randomness, and gaming are and how they affect every aspect of our lives.
About the author
Ivar Ekeland, mathematician. He became famous in the world of mathematics for his discovery of the Ecklang variational theorem named after him in 1974. He received the D 'Alembert Prize from the French Mathematical Association and the Jean-Rostan Prize from the Union of French Popular Science Writers for his contribution to the promotion of mathematical knowledge.
Etienne Lecroart, cartoonist. With the goal of breaking the rules of comic-making, Ubabo (Potential Comic-making Workshop), who is also a member of the editorial board of the French Society Press, has published several experimental works exploring the form of comic-making.
