Luck. We can't see or touch it, but we all know it when we experience it. Luck has a great influence on our lives, but is seemingly out of our own control. The Luck Factor takes us on a richly anecdotal ride through the more popular theories and histories of luck - from pseudoscience to paganism, through mathematics to magicians. You'll read stories about everyone from celebrities to the everyday person, from lotto winners to professional gamblers, to those individuals for whom nothing evers seems to go right - they are always 'down on their luck'.
