Publisher Description
A Business Week, New York Times Business, and USA Today Best Seller
In this unique exploration of the role of risk in our society, Peter Bernstein argues that the notion of bringing risk under control is one of the central ideas that distinguishes modern times from the distant past. Against the Gods chronicles the remarkable intellectual adventure that liberated humanity from oracles and soothsayers by means of the powerful tools of risk management that are available to us today. This brand new audio edition of Bernstein's classic work is masterfully narrated by Mike Fraser.

Can be dense but has good substance
At time the book can get a bit dense but it held my attention and taught me some valuable lessons about math theory, probability. Incredible book I’ll need to re read again soon.
