Publisher's Summary

Thinking Statistically is the book that shows you how to think like a statistician, without worrying about formal statistical techniques. Along the way we learn how selection bias can explain why your boss doesn't know he sucks (even when everyone else does); how to use Bayes' theorem to decide if your partner is cheating on you; and why Mark Zuckerberg should never be used as an example for anything. See the world in a whole new light, and make better decisions and judgments without ever going near a t-test.

Think. Think Statistically.

Clever book but not for me

Lost me totally when the author started assigning predictive equations to one’s mother shouting at them. I get it. It’s to show the application of statistical thinking in our everyday lives. Hence the title of the book. I don’t hold it against the author- I bought it knowing the general intent of the book. I just realised by chapter 3 I don’t want to think statistically to this level of detail thanks.
