When we integrate both the experience and the meaning of coincidences into our own lives, we open ourselves to the enriching possibilities, the blessings, and the sense of harmony with the universe that they offer. "Small Miracles" presents 60 real-life coincidences--some heartwarming, some strange, some awe-inspiring.

In The Improbability Principle, the renowned statistician David J. Hand argues that extraordinarily rare events are anything but. In fact, they're commonplace. Not only that, we should all expect to experience a miracle roughly once every month. But Hand is no believer in superstitions, prophecies, or the paranormal. His definition of "miracle" is thoroughly rational. No mystical or supernatural explanation is necessary to understand why someone is lucky enough to win the lottery twice, or is destined to be hit by lightning three times and still survive. All we need, Hand argues, is a firm grounding in a powerful set of laws: the laws of inevitability, of truly large numbers, of selection, of the probability lever, and of near enough. Together, these constitute Hand's groundbreaking Improbability Principle. And together, they explain why we should not be so surprised to bump into a friend in a foreign country, or to come across the same unfamiliar word four times in one day. Hand wrestles with seemingly less explicable questions as well: what the Bible and Shakespeare have in common, why financial crashes are par for the course, and why lightning does strike the same place (and the same person) twice. Along the way, he teaches us how to use the Improbability Principle in our own lives—including how to cash in at a casino and how to recognize when a medicine is truly effective. An irresistible adventure into the laws behind "chance" moments and a trusty guide for understanding the world and universe we live in, The Improbability Principle will transform how you think about serendipity and luck, whether it's in the world of business and finance or you're merely sitting in your backyard, tossing a ball into the air and wondering where it will land.

Born out of rape has gifted me with a unique perspective in sharing an incredible life story which stemmed from horror, yet blossomed into beauty. I only had a 10th grade education, but was blessed with an artistic gift. As an artist I taught myself fashion design, and successfully designed for celebrities and the general public. My charismatic, dimpled smile has helped me "climb the highest mountains" while opening many doors! In one instance, despite never having had a single acting lesson in my life, I landed a role in a political assasin movie shot in Italy with Christian Brando. Christian later became my boyfriend, and soon I found myself designing an Indian vest for the legend himself: Marlon Brando. This allowed me to visit his exclusive private Island, Tetiaroa, in Tahiti. The book - an autobiography chronicling my compelling life stories took years of bravery. Initially my intention was to leave a legacy for my children, and from this, unleashed into a book of inspiration. Touching on so many delicate, yet pertinent subjects, No Coincidences Only Miracles provides tools by example. Additionally, with my great sense of humor, some parts will bring much laughter to your day!

A British cavalry officer was fighting in the last year of World War One when he was knocked off his horse by a flash of lightning. He was paralyzed from the waist down. The man moved to Vancouver, Canada where, six years later, while fishing in a river, lightning struck him again, paralyzing his right side. Two years later, he was sufficiently recovered to take walks in a local park when, in 1930, lightning sought him out again, this time permanently paralyzing him. He died soon after. Four years later, lightning destroyed his tomb.
