Just Odds: An Illustrated Guide to J.E. Littlewood's Law of Miracles. How and Why Strange Things Happen at least once every 35 days in your life.

According to Littlewood's Law of Miracles (based on the theory of large numbers and probability), you should expect something truly unusual to happen every 35 days--so strange, in fact, that it will look like a miracle. This book, which is fully illustrated, explains how the improbable is probable by focusing on desultory decussation (where two random events from an interesting intersection--a synchronicity) and Littlewood's work in number theory at Cambridge University in the last century. Also explains such concepts as Apohenia and Patternicity.
