About the Book

Become a better decision-maker and more informed consumer using statistics stories.

Stories stimulate our brains to enhance retention and understanding by evoking emotions. They provide context, helping us grasp complex concepts through real-life examples and establish a connection with the information.
By transforming data into narratives, we recall and thus apply insights more effectively, enhancing our ability to make more informed decisions.

What sticks more?
Over 44 million Americans collectively owe more than $1.7 trillion in student loan debt (as of 2023).

Or... Last year, four out of five graduates entered the job market with a debt larger than an average home's down payment.
You don't need a college-level class on statistical analysis to understand how statistics affect your life - and how you can make better personal choices if you get to the correct conclusions. This book takes a step-by-step approach to drive home the key takeaways, ensuring you never feel lost.

Challenge popular fears - based on the stories data tells.

Is it more likely to get bitten by a shark or die in a plane crash? What's your guess? Find the answer in "Statistics Simplified."

Perfect for the Math-Averse.

You don't need to crunch numbers to make statistics valuable. Learn the key takeaways from the most useful statistics stories and apply them in your everyday life to make better decisions.

This book is designed for those who aren't "math people" but are down to learn the moral of a good story. Written in clear, jargon-free language with real-world examples, "Statistics Simplified" will help you grasp world-changing conclusions and apply them to your advantage.

Understand popular trends, make informed decisions, and predict outcomes.
