Certainty is an illusion—so how do we navigate an unpredictable world? Professor Sir David Spiegelhalter, aka Professor Risk, unpacks the art of uncertainty, revealing why randomness, luck, and probability shape everything. Are we ever truly in control? What separates risk from recklessness? And why do we trust data that’s often wrong?


Discover how lucky people think, why free will might be a myth, and how to make smarter decisions in a world ruled by chaos. If you’ve ever questioned the odds, this mind-expanding conversation will change the way you see risk, luck, and the future.
