In this book, author Tim Harford provides readers with a new perspective on the role of numbers and statistics in our daily lives. Harford argues that in order to make sense of the complex world around us, we must learn how to think critically about the numbers we encounter and how they are presented to us.
Through ten key rules, Harford provides readers with practical strategies for interpreting data and statistics, including how to spot fake news, understand correlation vs. causation, and navigate the world of big data. He also explores the history and evolution of statistics, from the ancient Greeks to the present day.
With clear and engaging prose, Harford shows readers how to use data and statistics to better understand the world around us and make informed decisions. Whether you're a data analyst or a casual reader, "How to Make the World Add Up" is an essential guide for anyone who wants to think more critically about the numbers that shape our lives.
