Plot

Leonard Mlodinow reveals the psychological illusions that prevent us understanding everything from stock-picking to wine-tasting, winning the lottery to road safety, and reveals the truth about the success of sporting heroes and film stars, and even how to make sense of a blood test. The Drunkard’s Walk is an exhilarating, eye-opening guide to understanding our random world – read it, so you won’t be left a victim of chance.
