An anthology written with the contributions of some of the most prominent statisticians, data analysts and Data Scientists in the world to help you take the next steps in your Data Ninja journey!
Beginner’s Guide to Correlation Analysis
Correlation analysis is one of the most used – and misunderstood – statistical techniques. Most correlation results are wrong, and for one very good reason. In this book we’re going to learn why this is - and learn how to fix it.
Beginner’s Guide to Correlation Analysis is written in plain English with no technical or statistical jargon.
In short, it is perfect for beginners!
Graphs Don’t Lie
Did you know that between them, Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney enjoyed a total of 193% support from Republican candidates in the 2012 US primaries?
It must be true – it was on a pie chart broadcast on Fox News.
Did you also know that the number 34 is smaller than 14, and zero is much bigger than 22?
Honest, it’s true, it was published in a respectable national newspaper after the 2017 UK General Election.
In this astonishing book, award winning statistician and author Lee Baker uncovers how politicians, the press, corporations and other statistical conmen use graphs and charts to deceive their unwitting audience.
Like how a shocking, and yet seemingly innocuous statement as “Every year since 1950, the number of children gunned down has doubled”, meant that there should have been at least 35 trillion gun deaths in 1995 alone.
Written as a layman’s guide to lying, cheating and deceiving with graphs, there’s not a dull page in sight! And it’s got elephants in it too…
Truth, Lies & Statistics
Did you know that pirates caused global warming, and that a statistical lie gave rise to one of the fastest growing religions on the planet?
They’re true, honest – and this book has got the stats to prove it.
In his trademark sardonic style, the author reveals the secrets of how the statistical hustlers manipulate and misrepresent data for political or commercial gain – and often get away with it.
Written as a layman’s guide to lying, cheating and deceiving with data and statistics, there’s not a dull page in sight!
Easy to Read
These books are all easy-readers and enable researchers of all backgrounds to understand and to evaluate the data, analyses, results, graphs and interpretations in their own research and in that of others.
Best of all, they make no assumptions about your previous experience with statistics, are packed with visually intuitive examples and are perfect for beginners!
