Reader recommendation: Naked Statistics

Monitor readers share their favorite book picks.

I am reading Naked Statistics by Charles Wheelan.  Mr. Wheelan gives the reader great insight into both the good and bad about statistics and data in an understandable manner.  The book will help you understand the numbers and help you ask the right questions about everything from claims by politicians to medical studies to sports statistics.
