Would a mathematician beat the market by a larger margin? You will surprisingly find out the truth when reading this book. John Allen Paulos demonstrates what the tools of mathematics can tell us about the vagaries of the stock market and intrigues the mindful reader's curiosity about a variety of market and investment theories you've learned either by professional training or through experience. Can a deeper knowledge of mathematics help beat the odds? The same as Burton Malkiel's A Random Walk Down Wall Street, it at least will teach us to stay humble, modest and grateful. The end result, we won't easily fall prey to the endless getting-rich-quickly scams.

Read this book before you draft or revise your will, and before spending money on professional estate planning services.
