However much we want certainty in our lives, it feels as if we live in an uncertain and dangerous world. But are we guilty of exaggerating the chances of some unwanted event happening to us? Are we misled by our ignorance of the reality of risk? This title illustrates how we can learn to make sense of statistics and turn ignorance into insight.
