Retrato anónimo de Spinoza (Wolfenbüttel)

A short piece on problems of probability in games of chance, in the tradition of Huygens. It was attributed to him because it was printed with the Calculation of the Rainbow, but there is no direct proof of his authorship and many specialists exclude it from the corpus.
