Twelve stories for twelve riddles. Twelve seemingly impossible challenges that must be met without forfeiting at the first hurdle. Because, very often, the solution is closer than you think…
Are you ready to launch yourself into a world suspended between magic and reality and accompany the heroes of these stories on their colourful and whimsical adventures? By thinking and reasoning, you’ll work with them to solve the riddles. And you’ll discover that, to do so, you don’t need magic or superhuman powers. All you need is… a little bit of maths!

Science Meets Sports: when statistics are more than numbers
This book presents the field of sports statistics to two very distinct target audiences, namely academicians, in order to raise their interest in this growing field, and, on the other hand, sports fans, who, even without advanced mathematical knowledge, will be able to understand the data analysis and gain new insights into their favourite sports.
The book thus offers a unique perspective on this attractive topic by combining sports analytics, data visualisation and advanced statistical procedures to extract new findings from sports data such as improved rankings or prediction methods.
