Abstract
In this paper, we revisit the origins of Emile Borel's developing interest in probability around 1905. This resulted from new findings in his research on continued fraction, but it also cannot be separated from the discovery of new applications for the mathematics of randomness (such as biology or economics) and of their importance as a life-changing tool for the citizen. In particular, we underline the role of a paper published by Vito Volterra in Borel's Revue du Mois.
