This book introduces the reader to statistical reasoning and its use in physics. It differs from other treatments of physics for nonscientists in its wideranging use of quantitative methods, which assume only that the reader can add, subtract, multiply and divide with confidence. The author begins with a selfcontained introduction to the everyday uses of probability, including the quantitative assessment of statistical information. The author develops the basic idea of mechanical motion, the molecular theory of gases, entropy as a measure of molecular agitation, limitations on the conversion of heat to work, the physics of the direction of time; chaos, and the role of probability in quantum mechanics. To aid self instruction, there are solved problems at the end of each chapter. This book is perfect for undergraduate physics students and nonscience majors.
