What a great read! Wong has done it again. If you are a serious blackjack player, or you think that you may want to become one, then you need to have this book in your library. I also own his book Professional Blackjack, and there are some similarities between the two. For example, they both teach you B.S. and the Hi-Low, but this book offers a great discussion about how to get away with your newly learned skills, along with topics about tipping dealers, games to avoid, and training techniques. Plus the price isn't bad either. Id recommend it to anyone!

Computerized Adaptive Testing: Theory and Practice

Ice Zero — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 22:39:00 GMT

Modern computer technology has opened up several new possibilities for optimizing the administration of educational and psychological tests. In computer adaptive testing (CAT), tests are automatically tailored to the proficiency level of the individual examinees. Currently, nearly all large-scale testing programs in the western world are already adaptive or in the process of becoming so. Written by active CAT researchers from Europe and North America, the chapters offer a comprehensive introduction to the latest developments in the theory and practice of CAT. The book can be used both as a basic reference on the state of the art in CAT and a valuable resource in graduate courses on test theory. The theoretical chapters in this book cover such topics as item selection and ability estimation, item pool development and maintenance, item calibration and model fit, and testlet-based adaptive testing. The practical chapters describe the operational aspects of existing large-scale CAT programs.

Chance: The life of games and the game of life

gargoyle — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 02:37:00 GMT

With its many easy-to-follow mathematical examples, this book takes the reader on an almost chronological trip through the fascinating and amazing laws of chance, omnipresent in the natural world and in our daily lives. Along the route many fascinating topics are discussed, such as: challenging probability paradoxes; "paranormal" coincidences; game odds; causes and effects; interpretation of opinion polls; winning chances as a game proceeds; the nature of randomness; entropy and randomness; randomness in life; algorithmic complexity and the undecidability of randomness; possibilities and limitations of learning the laws of a Universe immersed in chance events. This charming book will inform and entertain the scientist and non-scientist alike.
