I can’t imagine a more relevant read." Paul Walsh, VP of Weather Analytics and Meteorologist, The Weather Company
“With fun and verve, John and Mike take us through the essential steps to becoming a sophisticated consumer of the data that surrounds us. Don’t be fooled by the cheerful tone and the lack of grandiose claims: if they succeed in educating us (and I am sure they will), the result will be more discerning consumers, better stewards of their own health, and, most importantly, a better democracy.” Esther Duflo, professor of Economics, MIT, and co-founder and co-director, J-PAL
“Access to data is a critical driver of knowledge, curiosity, and innovation. But we need to understand how to interpret the data to tap into the wealth of possibility it creates.

An invaluable read!” Bradley Horowitz, VP, Photos and Streams at Google
