About this title: The authors began the research into this book with a belief, wholly untainted by any evidence outside personal experience, that luck plays a role in human affairs. They state, however, that luck does not rule one's life alone, only that there exists an element in life called luck or chance. Contents: lottery of life; luck through the ages; luck and religion; luck and science; luck and gambling; luck in sport; luck the universal element; ifs of history; ifs of politics; luck in business; lucky stars; luck in everyday life; tomorrow it may be you.
