Negative Positive
Title: Finally! Book is a huge service to anyone who cares about economic reporting.
Review: Everyone has heard the expression "torture the data until they confess" but hardly anyone screams about how that happens on almost a daily basis in the media. Commentators, reporters, pundits, analysts seem to have a point of view and then refer to economic indicators that buttress their position. How backwards. The numbers are the numbers and those who care about them ought to demand that they be honestly reported and analyzed. Epstein shows how data get massaged to buttress political points to help us all see things a little clearer. What a pleasure. Someone interested in reality over political posturing.
