I read Hacking's The Emergence of Probablility years ago and this modern redaction, an Excel spreadsheet, is at once a useful overview and at the same time a lesson in how not to do it. So I don't really recommend the spreadsheet, unless you want to cut and paste from it into a more useful format. The discussion on Metafilter is interesting, though. And I do recommend the book.
