Book Synopsis How to Lie with Statistics by : Darrell Huff
Book excerpt: A 1954 classic that continues to dispel false beliefs and inform the statistically naive. Huff's direct and witty style exposes how advertisers, government and the media mislead their audiences through the misuse of statistics. Huff then explains how the reader can see through the smoke and mirrors to get to the real meaning--if any--of what is presented. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
