The definitive guide to statistical thinking
Statistics are everywhere, as integral to science as they are to business, and in the popular media hundreds of times a day. In this age of big data, a basic grasp of statistical literacy is more important than ever if we want to separate the fact from the fiction, the ostentatious embellishments from the raw evidence - and even more so if we hope to participate in the future, rather than being simple bystanders.
In The Art of Statistics, world-renowned statistician David Spiegelhalter shows listeners how to derive knowledge from raw data by focusing on the concepts and connections behind the math. Drawing on real world examples to introduce complex issues, he shows us how statistics can help us determine the luckiest passenger on the Titanic, whether a notorious serial killer could have been caught earlier, and if screening for ovarian cancer is beneficial. The Art of Statistics not only shows us how mathematicians have used statistical science to solve these problems - it teaches us how we, too, can think like statisticians. We learn how to clarify our questions, assumptions, and expectations when approaching a problem, and - perhaps even more importantly - we learn how to responsibly interpret the answers we receive.
Combining the incomparable insight of an expert with the playful enthusiasm of an aficionado, The Art of Statistics is the definitive guide to stats that every modern person needs.

Beware the “inductivist illusion,” as anthropologist Lévi-Strauss terms it, is the belief that truth is won and explanation achieved through accumulation of more and more data and examination of more and more cases. If we gather more data and establish more and more associations, however, we will not finally find that we know something. We will simply end up having larger sets of nebulous correlations. Data never speak for themselves. They may be puzzles that can one day be explained; they may be trivia that need not be explained at all.

Who can say whether you’re talking airy-fairy woowoo or not?
Actually, I can - you are.
