Counting and Probability

by James Tanton

Written for every middle school student, teacher and parent, this book on Probability is the second volume in the best selling Middle School Mathematics series. James Tanton, a Princeton mathematician, has unveiled the joys and delights of Counting and Probability with a conversational introduction to key concepts accompanied by a unique collection of problems that set a student on the path of mathematical mastery and clever problem-solving. Based on his work across countries, colleges, and schools for the past two decades, this book is far less about making a student the ultimate problem-solver, but more about engendering an interest in Probability and its applications. A solutions manual with detailed solutions to every problem is available separately.
