    Delightful book to give you a smile and some realisation!

    Recommended by my brother, searched and received from flipkart timely, this is a great read to know how you are flooded with stats that do not mean what they appear to be.

    Highly recommend it! You will love it. Its vintage too, first published in 1954. Dont be fooled anymore by the statistics thrown at you!

    Obverrated

    Product quality and delivery timing was great. Though the book in itslef is overrated... don't buy if you wan't to understand details of statistician's thinking process ...buy if you just want how historically consumer has been fooled by giant corps. using statistics...

    Hype on Statistics

    It is out of date... Considering the hype around the book, I expected a lot more in terms of insight....

    Would not recommend

    Different perspective

    Although some of the matter in the book is familiar to almost everyone who has gone through some basic statistics, the highlight is the perspective the author gives on statistics. It was definitely worth a read, especially for anyone who is interested or uses statistics
