It is rare to come across a book that can truly be called fascinating, but
here is one. H. W. Lewis’s Why Flip a Coin? is about the science of making
decisions of all kinds—from choosing whom to marry to gambling on the
Stock Exchange—with such things as probability theory, puzzles and random
walks thrown in. It is practical, enlightening, witty and sometimes hilarious.
At the end of it, you will be far better equipped to deal with the thousands of
decisions you have to make during your life, and have had a whale of a time.
