This book reconstructs magic for a probabilistic world.
Drawing on decision theory, cognitive science, mental model frameworks, and the operational tradition of chaos magic, it argues that magical practice is best understood as probability engineering — the deliberate shaping of outcome distributions through attention, belief, and behavioural intervention.
By bringing into dialogue the work of thinkers such as Daniel Kahneman, Shane Parrish, Annie Duke, and Peter J. Carroll, it develops a rigorous account of influence without recourse to superstition. It shows how perception, decision processes, and symbolic action interact within complex systems to alter the trajectory of events.
Magic, in this framework, is not supernatural power.
It is structured agency exercised within conditions of uncertainty.
