The Empire of Chance: How Probability Changed Science and Everyday Life - Ideas in Context
Gigerenzer, Gerd (Universitat Konstanz, Germany)

It connects the earliest applications of probability and statistics in gambling and insurance to the most recent forays into law, medicine polling and baseball.
