Riassunto

The Doctrine of Chances, written by Abraham De Moivre and first published in 1718, is a book that explores the mathematical principles behind probability and the calculation of odds in games of chance. De Moivre's work is considered to be one of the foundational texts in the field of probability theory and is still studied and referenced by mathematicians and statisticians today.The book begins with a discussion of the basic principles of probability, including the concept of random events and the calculation of probabilities based on the number of possible outcomes. De Moivre then goes on to explore more complex topics such as the laws of large numbers, the theory of permutations and combinations, and the calculation of expected values.Throughout the book, De Moivre provides numerous examples and practical applications of probability theory, including the calculation of odds in games of dice, cards, and other games of chance. He also discusses the role of probability in the natural sciences, including astronomy and physics.Overall, The Doctrine of Chances is a comprehensive and influential work that has had a significant impact on the development of modern probability theory. It remains an essential text for anyone interested in the mathematics of probability and the calculation of odds in games of chance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
