A review by reinhardt
How Not to Be Wrong: The Power of Mathematical Thinking by Jordan Ellenberg

4.0

Like many book on using math in everyday life, this book focuses a lot on statistics. It provides some interesting and illuminating real life examples, especially when it comes to people who have beat certain lotteries and how they did it and why the states let them continue.

Well written, but maybe a bit glib at times. One of the better popular books on math, but don’t get the idea that it has ready practical application. It’s more about mindset than math.
