Criticism Out Of Books Improbable

I loved this book! I picked it up at a used bookstore, intending to read it at the beach but it got lost in the shuffle and I picked it up again a couple of weeks ago. I had a hard time putting it down. Even though it is a few years old, I found it current, relevant, and crazy scary! I yelped a couple of times out loud while I was reading it! I love the concept and will say no more for fear of ruining it for anyone. I think this book has renewed my interest in thrillers.

Intense, smart, and clever. Science-oriented like Michael Crichton's books. This book focuses more on physics/quantum physics rather than medical science however and also is about POKER (i.e. statistics and probability). I really liked it because of the action and its "time travel"-ish theme. Good book for the plane/beach/or pool if you are into that sorta stuff.



What a ride! The graphic nature of many of the descriptions had me scrunching up my face and puckering my lips but the themes and events in this book are fresh and frantic!If you are a fan of science fiction or time travel, you'll probably enjoy Improbable.

one of my all time favorite novels and it makes me so mad that this author has yet to write anything else this book hits the ground running and doesnt stop until youve turned that last page and you can finally tell yourself to breathe normally again maybe its just my love of the crazy out there theories but as Ive said before I love a book that can entertain as well as teach dealing with the theory of Laplaces demon look it up its really intriguing and the idea of knowing anything and everything

This scientist guy thinks he is sick and having seizures but really he is developing the ability to see the multiple futures possible in every action. Now he is not only in danger from the russians that he owes money too, but also an evil scientist who wants to use his ability. Fortunately he has his twin brother and a ex-CIA assasin to help him escape.[return]This is a thrill ride at times, but there is a lot of complicated science stuff that is hard to understand at times. It touches on the

After recommendation of my lovely cousin, I kept this book in my mind. When she told the storyline of 'Improbable', I was like 'Wow, that's my thing. I gotta read it.' I am not regretful, actually, I am happy to do read it. It helped me to understand the things that I know about Math and Science better than I did B4. Unique and Improbable:) book ever.I can't recommend this book to everyone because it includes a lot of terms about Math&Science. People not interested in these subjects would
