Best, Joel. 2012. Damned Lies and Statistics: Untangling Numbers from the Media, Politicians, and Activists. Updated ed. Berkeley, CA: University of California Press.
Looks great! Brian's book isn't necessarily for people who will be presenting with numbers, just anyone over 5th-6th grade or so. The amount of trip-up I see from lack of number sense is .. staggering. Good math/stat folks develop it as tacit knowledge, need resources for rest!

Totally agree. Developing those instincts is critically important. Our boys are in grade school now, and they are getting some of what's needed, but we need better training for sure. I put in my kindle pre-order so I'll get the book when it's released in a couple weeks
