The Physics of Chance: From Blaise Pascal to Niels Bohr Paperback - 1992
by Charles Ruhla; G. Barton
From the rear cover
This is an introduction to the ideas of randomness that are central to much of modern physics and have overthrown the 'clock-work universe' conceptions of earlier centuries. The author shows how the laws of probability and statistics were developed by such mathematicians as Fermat, Pascal, and Gauss, and how they received their first major application in physics in the kinetic theory of gases developed by Maxwell and Boltzmann.
