This book has had an extremely profound influence on how I think about an incredible array of topics - communication, thermodynamics, daily work. Opened a series of doors into other topics.

Thought provoking book on forecasting and predictions in
very aspects of our lives. I especially liked the section on
Bayes Theory and Investing and poker.
