Ergodicity (3rd edition)

Ergodicity

Ergodicity is an important idea with so many practical applications. Sadly, most books describe it in a very technical way, making it inaccessible to most people.

In this short book, author Luca Dellanna describes ergodicity as simply as possible. You will read stories about how not knowing about it destroyed his cousin’s career as a skier, or how misunderstanding it caused additional deaths during the pandemic. You will learn how to spot situations in which ergodicity matters and the three strategies to react appropriately.


What you will get

By purchasing this book, you will receive all of the following:

  • PDF version
  • .ePub version (compatible with Apple Books & other eBook readers)
  • .mobi version (Kindle)

Note: if you have a Kindle device, you can send it the files above via email to read the book on it.


Moreover, if you purchase the full package, you also get:

  • the audiobook (high-quality 320kbps .mp3 files; here is a sample; note that it is not professionally produced due to the reasons detailed below)
  • the roam version (Roam graph, more info on it below)
  • a few videos I made to explain some additional concepts related to ergodicity (.mp4 files)


And finally, you can also add to the full package a one-hour video call with the author


The audiobook

  • The audiobook is self-produced, because for a variety of reasons I couldn't get it professionally produced (between others, many platforms are inaccessible to non-US and non-UK authors, plus bureaucratic and fiscal reasons linked to my individual company limit what I produce and how)
  • I tried narrating the audiobook myself, but discovered I could achieve better audio quality using AI. You can listen to a sample of the first chapter here.
  • It is not currently available on any other platform (because of administrative difficulties as an Italian author to access the Audible publishing platform, between others)

Is this book also available on Amazon?

You can get the paperback or Kindle from Amazon. That said, if you purchase it here, you also get the Kindle file, and additional content.

Also, the two versions are slightly different, and the one you can get here is more updated, and you get all future updates for eventual new editions and additional chapters I might publish in the future.

The audiobook is currently only available here. I'm currently navigating some administrative difficulties that prevent me from publishing it on Audible and other platforms.


Who is this book for?

This book is for readers interested in growing themselves, their career, or their business, and who want to learn about ergodicity and its practical applications without having to understand its mathematical foundation.

Readers who want to master the theory and mathematical foundation of ergodicity are better off reading a more formal manuscript. This book is not a substitute for it, but a complement.

The Roam version

This book is also available as a Roam Research graph.

Roam is a website that shows content in an interconnected way, a bit like Wikipedia. Reading the book this way will allow you to go back and forth content at your pace and following your interests.

"Ten minutes in, and I'm already questioning whether I'll want to read another non-fiction book *not* published in Roam format. How fascinating and so very valuable. Thank you Luca Dellanna" – Conor M. Ogle (link)

Important: reading the Roam version requires a pre-existing Roam subscription, which is not included in this bundle.

If you purchase the Roam version, you will receive the eBook in 3 formats (PDF, Kindle, and ePub) and the Roam version (as an editable .json export of the book) and a document suggesting how to import the Roam book and use it.

You might also be interested in my second Roam book, on management (link).

Note: in the past, I also used to offer the possibility to read the Roam version from the read-only graph I personally hosted, whereas now it's only available as a graph you import in your own Roam account.

Add a 1h call with the author, to talk about the topics of the book or any problem you might be encountering in your life.
