In this brilliantly entertaining book, John Allen Paulos argues that our inability to deal rationally with very large numbers, or with the probabilities associated with them, results in misinformed governmental policies, confused personal decisions, and an increased susceptibility to pseudo-sciences of all kinds. Innumeracy lets us know what we're missing- and how we can do something about it.
