The work of 58 contributing authors, investigating probabilistic thinking across the globe, is encapsulated in 6 prefaces, 29 chapters and 6 commentaries.

Una heterogénea colección de investigaciones sobre lo que alumnos y profesores piensan de la probabilidad y la manera en la cual abordan y aprenden de problemas contextualizados o no, establecidos en palabras o a través de simuladores electrónicos, con análisis desde el punto de vista filosófico, psicológico, estocástico y pedagógico. Algunos capítulos son excelentes mientras otros difícilmente superan el sentido común. Lo que puedo afirmar es que, entre sus 747 páginas, cualquier profesor, investigador o curioso encontrará varias luces muy valiosas. Bueno, al menos muy probablemente lo hará.
