A Series of Fortunate Events: Chance and the Making of the Planet, Life, and You
A rollicking, awe-inspiring story of the power of chance in our lives and the world, A Series of Fortunate Events is a relatively small book about really big ideas.
Drawing inspiration from Monty Python, Kurt Vonnegut, and other great thinkers, A Series of Fortunate Events is an irresistibly entertaining and thought-provoking account of one of the most important but least appreciated facts of life.
"The role of happenstance in determining the fate of the world may seem a matter for philosophy more than science, but Carroll, a biologist, shows how central the idea is to everyday existence." -- New York Times Book Reiew
