The Logic of Chance: An Essay on the Foundations and Nature of the Theory of Probability

John Venn

The Logic of Chance is a groundbreaking work in probability theory, written by logician John Venn, best known for his contributions to statistics and epistemology. Though not directly theological, this book was often cited in discussions of divine providence, free will, and the apparent randomness in the natural world, especially in debates over miracles and divine intervention. This edition preserves Venn’s rigorous treatment of chance, causality, and empirical reasoning, making it a bridge between science and philosophy.
