Innumeracy - Paulos John Allen
Why do even well-educated people often understand so little about maths - or take a perverse pride in not being a 'numbers person'? Paulos shows us that by arming yourself with some simple maths, you don't have to let numbers get the better of you. In his now-classic book "Innumeracy", John Allen Paulos answers questions such as: why is following the stock market exactly like flipping a coin; how big is a trillion; how fast does human hair grow in mph; and, can you calculate the chances that a party includes two people who have the same birthday.
