If you enjoy mathematics, and wish to learn more, and pick up a copy of Kinney's Probability, what is the likelihood that you will enjoy this book?

If you've read the book, you will know that it falls somewhere between 0 and 1 (or 0% to 100%). But I can't answer the question to the nth degree unless I have some more probabilistic information on you, now, can I?

The truth is, there are many, many, many texts on Probability out there. Some have a lot of whiz-bang, while others have a lot of hard math (that is, just the formulae with little to no real-world application).

While the text of Probability is not the most glamorous you've seen, the subject matter at hand will actually (gasp shock and awe!) teach you probability.

At least, it taught me probability. The outcome of your own experience may differ.
