understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.

Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.

I was born on February 28th 1939 and my wife Catherine on 26th August 1941. We got married in 1964 and our first daughter Sarah was born on 26th August 1966 to share Catherine's birthday. My second daughter Rachel was borne on 28th February 1968 and therefore shared my birthday. Christopher Horne
