Title: Fooled by the Author
Product review: This book has little substance on the central theme of people having a poor understanding of the cause and effect of events, and that people with poor math literacy are often misled by numbers.A far better book on this topic is "Innumeracy: Mathematical Illiteracy and its Consequences by John Allen Paulos.More than the lack of substance the tone of this book makes one think that the author doesn't respect the intelligence of others. Yet he doesn't any new value to this subject as you'll see if you read other authors on this topic. Perhaps the author was fooled by the fact that someone would publish his book, but that doesn't make him a mavin on this topic, especially since his examples are retreads.
