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.
Some years ago, when my mother was critically ill in hospital, I was staying in her flat, on my own, so that I was able to visit her more frequently. For most of the time I confined myself to my room, kitchen and bathroom, not using her sitting room at all.
One morning I had a compelling urge to listen to some music so went into the living room and switched on the radio, never having done this before. The first thing I heard was a voice I recognised: It was my brother being interviewed! I had had no prior knowledge whatsoever of this interview.
