A (Fun??) Textbook on Probability?

[Go_Blue88]

Hey,

I have no clue what forum to post this in, but I figured a forum w/ ppl who know lots about math couldn't be a bad place to ask this (I realize that there's a Probability forum, but I feel like that's more related to poker stuff).

Anyway, I'm hoping someone could recommend a basic book on probability. I've always wanted to learn about it, but unfortunately a class never fit into my majors.

Ideally, the author will have an interesting voice. I doubt that's very likely though...

I'd appreciate any books that you guys somewhat enjoyed.

Thanks.

Ps-- Mods feel free to move this to the forum that you deem appropriate.

This book is decent, but not particularly rigorous. Probably fits your needs if it's not for a class.

May want to check the probability forum.
