From the reviews of the second edition:

„This book takes its place in a long line of books on probability directed to nonmathematicians. … the author gives those readers interested in more details some simple mathematics in various places, with the comment that readers uneasy with mathematics can pass over these details without losing the main thrust, but encourages readers to make the effort. … readers who try to follow the mathematical details will probably find these to be helpful exercises.“ (Gerald A. Heuer, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1156, 2009)
