Mathematician and statistician Franklin presents a history of probability before Pascal and Fermat discovered the mathematics of probability in 1654. These are rational methods of dealing with uncertainty that concern neither mathematics nor any anticipation of mathematics, he says and were devised in law, science, commerce, philosophy, and logic to get at the truth in cases in which certainty is not attainable. His topics include the ancient law of proof, the doubting conscience and moral certainty, hard science, philosophy: action and induction, religion: law of God and laws of nature, and dice.
