Book Synopsis How Numbers Lie by : Richard P. Runyon
Book excerpt: It has been said that statistics can be used to prove anything-- and sometimes to prove both sides of the same argument. It all depends on how you interpret and apply information. Runyon looks at the ways that statistics can be made to mislead you in polls, test scores, advertising, government statistics, and medical statistics. Then he arms you against those who use numbers as a weapon.
