The Broken Dice, and Other Mathematical Tales of Chance 1st edition

Why is it that even the most ingenious attempts to eliminate the free play of chance have failed? Is life really nothing other than the roll of dice or the toss of a coin? In this book, Ivar Ekeland contemplates these and many other questions concerning the randomness of nature.
