这个话题有不少通俗畅销书，比如《魔鬼数学：大数据时代数学思维的力量》（How Not to Be Wrong: The Power of Mathematical Thinking）：https://smile.amazon.com/How-Not-Be-Wrong-Mathematical/dp/01...
There are quite a few popular books on this topic, e.g. How Not to Be Wrong: The Power of Mathematical Thinking : https://smile.amazon.com/How-Not-Be-Wrong-Mathematical/dp/01...
Ellenberg 的《魔鬼数学》（How Not to Be Wrong）里对这个有极精彩的描述：https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_Not_to_Be_Wrong 我强烈推荐这本书；这是一本大众数学科普书，由真正的数学家撰写，探讨的是切实的数学问题，读起来妙趣横生……
A wonderful account of this is given in Ellenberg's "How Not to Be Wrong": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_Not_to_Be_Wrong I highly recommend the book; it is a popular mathematics book, written by a real mathematician, discussing some real mathematics, with an engaging…
第二点叫这个：http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffon%27s_needle（布丰投针问题）。Jordan Ellenberg 在他的《魔鬼数学》（How Not to Be Wrong）一书中也提到了这点，里面有一段和你上面的解释很像。我提这本书也是因为读起来确实很爽。
#2 is called this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffon%27s_needle. This is also mentioned in Jordan Ellenberg's book How Not to Be Wrong, and has a similar passage with your explanation above. I mention the book as much because it's a great read.
……对讨厌数学的人来说也浅显易懂。简直太赞了。对我而言，数学是通往新世界的大门。我开始阅读关于数学以及物理等相关领域的书籍。（Daniel Tammet 的《数字思维》（Thinking in Numbers）、Jordan Ellenberg 的《魔鬼数学》（How Not to Be Wrong）、James D. Stein 的《宇宙之数》（Cosmic Numbers）、理查德·费曼等等。我想你懂我意思，保持好奇心，保持开放的求知欲。希望这对你有帮助，祝好运！……
…understand for math haters. It was pretty awesome. To me, math is the new door to the new world. I started reading books about math and related field like Physics. (Thinking in numbers by Denial Tammet, How Not to Be Wrong by Jordan Ellenberg. Cosmic Numbers: The Numbers That Define Our Universe by James D. Stein, Richard Feynman and etc. I think you get this, stay curious, stay open to learn. Hope this help and good luck!…
我极力推荐 Ellenberg 的《魔鬼数学》（How Not To Be Wrong）。Ellenberg 是一流的数学家，也是位出色的科普作家，他的书以一种亲切可爱的方式展现了数学作为思考工具的威力（及其局限性）。
I highly recommend Ellenberg's "How Not To Be Wrong". Ellenberg is a first-class mathematician and general expositor, and his book illustrates the power (and the limitation, in an endearing way) of mathematics as a tool of thought.

Jordan Ellenberg 的新书《魔鬼数学》（How Not to Be Wrong）里有一章很有意思，叫“巴尔的摩股票经纪人骗局”。
There is a fun chapter on this topic in Jordan Ellenberg's latest book "How not to be wrong". It's called the "Baltimore stockbroker fraud".
