Review title: A nice set of ideas and recommendations
Product review: This book is a short primer on statistical literacy combined with a style guide on discussing numbers in prose, and through charts and tables. The focus is on numbers that represent data obtained from polls or experiments. The style guide portions are quite basic, are best suited for students, and do not present many different options for presenting data. The parts on statistical literacy, particularly those on presenting data in an intellectually honest manner, are worth reading and rereading for most anyone.Overall, this guide is a decent addition to the reference collection of anyone who writes about data.
