 abstract = {This is a book for people who really like probability problems. There are, I think, a lot of people who fall into that category. Indeed, the editors ofParade, a magazine insert in millions of Sunday newspapers across America, thought a probabilistic question intriguing enough to put it on the cover of their issue of August 10, 1997. For the real connoisseur of probability, however, it was actually a pretty tame problem: "Your dog has a litter of four. Is it most likely that two are males and two are females?"That question was posed in the "Ask Marilyn" column},
