Gary Smith, Standard Deviations: Flawed Assumptions, Tortured Data, and Other Ways to Lie with Statistics, The Overlook Press (July 21, 2015) : “A very entertaining book about a very serious problem. We deceive ourselves all the time with statistics, and it is time we wised up.” said Robert J. Shiller, Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics. As another Nobel Prize–winning economist Ronald Coase once cynically observed, “If you torture data long enough, it will confess.” Standard Deviations demystifies the science behind statistics and makes it easy to spot the fraud all around.
