This work serves as a practical guide and philosophical framework for individuals seeking to integrate the principles of 'dice living'—the practice of using chance to dictate life decisions—into their daily routines. Luke Rhinehart, the author of the seminal work The Dice Man, draws upon his decades of experience with this unconventional lifestyle to provide a collection of parables, essays, and instructional content. The book functions as a reference manual for those interested in the psychological and social implications of relinquishing control to random outcomes.

The text functions as a definitive companion piece for those already familiar with Rhinehart's previous explorations of radical autonomy and chance. Its structure suggests a non-linear, instructional approach intended for readers who view the dice as a legitimate tool for personal liberation and social experimentation.
