Pollux James (verified owner) –
This is a very useful, clearly written, highly applicable book on math. Better said how to use all that math we learned in real life. I found the section on insurance premium calculation, and the shopping tips the most useful. The anecdotes on linear vs nonlinear thinking we’re also eye opening. A recommended read.

While I don’t hate math, I’m certainly not great at it by any stretch of the imagination. This book is immensely helpful in teaching you how to improve your critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Many of the concepts found in math can help you in other aspects of life, so while you may not necessarily still be in school or studying math, you can certainly apply this to many fields. I love how the author guides you through mathematical thinking, from abstract to precision and more.
My only qualm is that I noticed the pages at the bottom of the book actually restart at the end of every chapter, which is a bit odd when I try to keep tabs on how far I’ve read. Aside from the page formatting, I believe this content is incredibly insightful and helpful to all looking to improve their analytical skills!
Zachary (verified owner) –
I’d give this book a recommendation to someone who needs a quick math book that’s not too deep in the mathematical trenches so to speak, but honestly I was hoping for a bit more.
The chapter on linear thinking and non-linear thinking was the highlight for me. It was really interesting and I think I’ll be exploring it further.
I wish that when math was used in the book it was a bit more clear what was going on. Overall though I think it’s well worth the investment because it’s short even though some parts pack a punch more than others.
Reader KA (verified owner) –
Although this book was described as a story about mathematical thinking, it was actually about building skills for lifelong learning.
The author tackled a wide range of subjects, including the English language, politics, psychology, economics, mental health. There was even a “spiritual quality” in the pages of the book.
I enjoyed reading this short, well-written piece. Most importantly, I learned something after reading this book.
Ahmed F. (verified owner) –
A good critical thinking practice book that helps in all life aspects, not just math. My only take if the page formatting and the book was also a bit short. Recommended
Lori (verified owner) –
Finally, a book on mathematics that acknowledges people that hate math. Which is a lot of people. We need more books like this to help people to find mathematics useful, engaging, even divine and a purposeful necessity. Beyond just adding and subtracting money. Which is the only time that people who despise math care about math.
I like this quote:.“Critical thinking is important because it allows us to acknowledge our emotions, but not be controlled by them.” Not to be affected by them, as in to not let them drive your decision-making processes. After reading this, it surprised me to find that people that love math actually think like me. And aren’t entirely different. And from a different species. My father loves math and I feel like he has a genetic predisposition to mathematics and he also loved physics. My brother who genetically inherited the ability to do math from him(our father), on the other hand, loves physics, got a degree in it, and did NOT like math because he said that with math he doesn’t know why he’s doing anything that he’s doing, but with physics there is purpose and there’s a reason. The reason I use the phrase “genetic predisposition” is because I grew up with my brother and he didn’t like math but could naturally do math well and I couldn’t, but I could write well. That is fiction, poetry, songs. I was good at English and all things creative writing.
Anyway, one of my genuine reasons for reading this book is to see if people that love math or are good at it have similar thought processes to myself. I grew up with a father that loved math and is very good at math, but I guess I just wanted to know if other people outside of my family that love math and are good at it have similar kinds of thinking, which this book proved/confirmed to me. So that means I’m not bad in math like I’ve been thinking my whole life but had bad math teachers, that’s all. I was willing to learn math to the best of my ability. But the teachers weren’t the best at teaching it. I mean, I think math teachers are better in the United States than the country I grew up in.
Anyway, this quote rings true, “Just like analytical thinking, critical thinking isn’t something you’re born with. It’s a skill you gain with education and practice.” That’s something that I have started notice ever since I graduated with my masters.
For the part on memorization. It depends on what kind of memorization. If its mental memorization, then that is definitely not understanding. But if it’s muscle memory like typing, balancing, walking on a pole, those sorts of things had to have an understanding before you became so accustomed to it you don’t even think about it anymore when you’re doing it.
As a creative writer, I really enjoyed the Chapter on creative thinking. I didn’t know that, “mathematical thinkers often hit a roadblock; they feel stuck. To make progress, they follow creative leaps and bounds to conjecture a hypothesis that then they will try to prove.” So it shocked me that math-thinkers have to be creative, especially since I was already thinking of creativity as infinite, and never ending.
I used to think of math-thinkers, sometimes even the ones in my family, as methodological, calculating and rigid.
See, creativity is all-encompassing and is vital for every corner of our lives. I highly recommend this book for people that hate math now or hated math growing up. It’s not scary, and it’s not strange to take a dive in.

The Art of Statistical Thinking is very well written. This book gives you a glimpse into the world of statistics. If you have ever wondered about how statistics work, but didn’t study it, this book would be a great springboard for you. Rutherford and Kim talk about what statistics does, what it looks at, and how it works. The examples are simplified to make it easy for anyone to understand.
The book is written from a perspective of genuine care to educate, inform, and include. The authors do a great job at making the process of learning statistical basics less painful. Their examples make reading the book entertaining.
I really liked the last chapters where the authors explain how different groups can mess with data depending on how they interpret it or how professionals can skew the methodology to produce certain results. They provide a great explanation of how some people lie with statistics or distort confidence in results, and how others inadvertently create misleading charts because of different biases.
JK (verified owner) –
I was looking for a book to help me broaden my knowledge of statistics without being overwhelming. This one was a great fit for that purpose. The explanations and the examples are very clearly stated and presented in an easy to follow fashion. The authors are very knowledgeable in the field – one of them has a PhD in it. The priming knowledge runs deep rather than wide, the writing is coherent, the examples relevant. It was a pleasure to read this book. It stoked my curiosity to start digging deeper into more advanced topics related to statistics. Hopefully they will write a book on probability calculations or using the R programming language for statistics.
Hal Macomber (verified owner) –
Mr Rutherford knows the subjects he writes about. He needs to get a good editor. It will improve readability and presentation.
Nelo (verified owner) –
I enjoyed this book because of how its made and mostly the technology in it because I really enjoy technology because if you know technology you could learn how to code or maybe things that other people don’t know. This book is great and I recommend it for people that are into technology but everyone can read it that’s why its a book I’m just recommending it.
m (verified owner) –
Statistics was never my strongest skill but this book helped me have a better understanding on the subject. The examples were helpful and well-explained. Some easy to moderate math involved – but hey, you’re reading about statistics, not a romance novel. It’s a field that uses numbers, so there will be numbers. The authors did a good job at explaining what’s what and how to interpret everything numerical. So again, this book was very useful to me.
KH (verified owner) –
This book offers a comprehensive guide to the fundamentals of statistics, helping readers develop critical and analytical thinking skills. With step-by-step guidance, readers will learn how to detect and avoid misleading information, understand descriptive and inferential statistics, and make better decisions using probability. Written by internationally bestselling author Albert Rutherford and highly cited researcher Jae H. Kim, this book is a must-read for anyone looking to improve their decision-making abilities and understand the world around them.
Taylor (verified owner) –
Many people have a complicated relationship with math. I think that’s mostly because of bad teachers… as this book points it out, there are so many life areas where mathematical logic is used that have nothing to do with the numbers. Granted, one has to understand the basic principles of arithmetics – but basic basic, like how does addition or subtraction work. And you don’t have to calculate in your head how much 14856+24321 is – although you can, and I learned in this book how. Point being, there is more to math than equations and geometry calculations. Really liked the chapters on tinkering and guessing. Good read overall. Would recommend it to everyone who likes to learn new things and train their minds in a chill way.
Mitty (verified owner) –
I enjoyed this book. However, with a background in engineering, I’ve seen much of the information before. If you have zero background in statistics or you glaze over when you see mathematical formulas, this might not be the book for you.
I appreciated the concise explanations, sprinkling of humor throughout, and the discussion on the “null ritual”. The authors also point out ways in which academia has failed to properly equip students with statistical thinking.
I can confidently say that I set down this book feeling a little bit wiser.
Augustus (verified owner) –
I really love the way the topics were Presented. It was easy to follow and understand. I know I have a new appreciation For how important mathematics is In our daily lives. I highly recommend it. Thanks a lot.
Helge (verified owner) –
I would recommend this book to everyone who has just completed the course of basic statistics. Now that you are familiar with the methods, this book will explain when they can be used, and – most importantly – when they shouldn’t be used (and show the better alternatives). Basically, those details that are not usually taught in statistics courses, but are vitally important for using statistics in real life.
(As some other reviewers already mentioned, you need to have sufficient understanding of the basic statistical methods to fully benefit from this book. However, even without that I believe this book has a lot to offer – especially the explanations of how statistics are often misused (by the press, politicians, etc.))
Mike watkins Jr. (verified owner) –
This is a great book to read alongside “Making Numbers Count: The Art and Science of Communicating Numbers”.
What i love about this book is that it brings out that math involves asking “what if” and experimenting with those “what ifs”. I don’t know about you but math was presented to me in school as a finite system with only one answer/approach.
The solution is for schools to create an environment that is conducive to divergent thinking, or as Sir Kem puts it, “the ability to see lots of possible answers to a question, lots of possible ways of interpreting a question”. In other words, the author argues that problem-solving skills should be emphasized in math the way they are in other liberal disciplines and he presents various methods that teach you how to do this throughout the book.
These methods consist of the following:
1. Develop a mathematical habit
2. Become a better pattern detective
3. Use probability and experimentation
4. Describe and speak in the language of math.
5. Tinker
6. Invent
7. VIsualize
8. Guess
The author presents these methods in layman’s terms and even presents simple exercises you can do to start applying them.
Further, the author brings out how the creative process used to process music/art etc. is the same process used to process mathematics. In fact, some mathematicians have claimed that their critical discoveries came to them while sleeping (similar to a lot of brilliant musicians).
In other words, everyone has the ability to learn and process mathematics, there isn’t some unique aspect/attribute that you need to understand math.
But ye I would recommend this book to anybody. IT breaks down the flaws in the current American mathematical education system, how to address these flaws, and how you can embrace/lov
Mike (verified owner) –
This actually is much more like a thinking education book than a math learning book. It promotes learning thinking skills such as analytical thinking and creative thinking, and apply them in our daily life. It’s very interesting to read it, and it opens up a new perspective for me. One of my take-away from this book is nonlinear thinking. Overall, it’s a book worth to read and keep!
Jude Griffin (verified owner) –
“Mathematical Thinking for People Who Hate Math” by Albert Rutherford is an excellent resource for anyone looking to improve their analytical and creative thinking skills. The book provides practical tips and strategies for problem-solving and decision-making, making it a valuable tool for both personal and professional growth. Rutherford’s writing style is engaging and easy to follow, making complex concepts accessible to readers of all levels. Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to overcome their fear of math and develop a more analytical mindset.
W Boroughs (verified owner) –
This book is interesting and helpful, but can be a bit thick or dense in the narrative. A math-oriented person will have an easier time of it, for sure, but everyone can benefit. I do recommend to help build and develop better mental math skills.

I really enjoyed this book. Not only because I learned a lot about deciphering statistics but also because it was a fun read! I didn’t think books on such a -presumably – dry topic could be this entertaining. And I finally nailed down what the Bayesian theorem is! Like holy moly! Sure, I won’t be able to create a full-blown analysis BUT I will know what to look for when I see one. And that’s all I really wanted to learn here. This book delivered its promise.

Albert does an amazing job of simplifying and providing a thoughtful presentation of math. His insight in how math plays an important role in or everyday life is amazing.
Karen Marie Shelton (verified owner) –
This book was a wonderful surprise. I really enjoyed how the author, Albert Rutherford, provided real-world examples of each lesson in the statistics he presented. The examples made me stop and think about statistics in an entirely different way. I took statistics classes in college and found them bland but necessary for my studies. With Albert’s book, I kept reading each new section because I was having fun thinking about traditional statistics in real-world applications. I had never considered it before. I highly recommend this book to anyone, whether you like statistics or not. It will open your eyes to the world around you. Did I say I loved it? Well, I really did.
Michael McFarren (verified owner) –
Being a scientist and mathematician, I found this book to be refreshing and informative. I recommend it to all interested in better understanding their world. Don’t be caught unaware. Look and question for better understanding. This book will show you tools to do just that.

After years of studying statistics I’ve not had as clear, concise review as presented here. I will be rereading this book and using it as a reference to improve my statistical prowess.
mychoiceisphysics (verified owner) –
Although many things seem copied from the book “a mind for numbers” by barbara oakley, it provides some new aspects of mathematical thinking, and sets these aspect with the aspects mentioned in “a mind for numbers” in relation. Also it is more concise and less detailed than “a mind for numbers”.
My suggestion is, reading “a mind for numbers” first, and afterwards come back to this book. This helps to integrate and chunk your previous information and learning and thinking techniques from “a mind for numbers” on the information provided in “mathematical thinking-…”. Also gives u repetition of the information from “a mind for numbers”, because of the shorter explanations.
The shortness seems to be irritating and wouldn’t create much relevance, without the pre knowledge from “a mind for numbers”.
Happy reading

Information is all around us and when you have that sixth sense that what you are being told just doesn’t add up, you are likely right. This book on statistics can help you decipher good science from bad, and reliable results from unreliable. If you’re like me, statistics in school was like learning another language. This book breaks down statistics into easy to understand concepts with plenty of examples. In this day and age where data literacy is critical, you have in your hands ways to be a better citizen.

EZ Insight (verified owner) –
Rutherford excels at breaking down complex ideas into digestible parts, making the subject accessible to anyone. The book is not about making you a mathematician but about enhancing your analytical and creative thinking skills. It highlights the importance of mathematical thinking in everyday problem-solving and decision-making, showing its relevance beyond the classroom.
One of the book’s strengths is its practical approach. It combines theoretical concepts with exercises that encourage readers to apply what they have learned. This hands-on method helps reinforce the material and allows readers to see the practical applications of mathematical thinking in real life.
Excellent guide for demystifying math and leveraging its principles to enhance your analytical abilities.

“Statistics Simplified” is a delightful read for anyone who shudders at the mention of math. It’s like a friend who patiently explains a tricky concept without making you feel out of your depth. Through engaging stories and real-world examples, Rutherford and Gordon make statistics not just understandable but fascinating. Each chapter reads like a mini-narrative, helping you see the practical side of data analysis in everyday life. The book’s charm lies in its ability to transform complex ideas into simple, relatable anecdotes that stick with you. Whether it’s how you take your coffee or more significant life decisions, this book shows you how to use statistics to your advantage.

Jay A. Nesbit (verified owner) –
“Statistics Simplified” by Albert Rutherford and Abby Gordon is a good pick for those new to statistics. The authors use clear, simple language and real-world examples, making it easy to follow.
A unique feature is how the book uses stories to explain concepts. This helps make complex ideas stick. For instance, the book talks about how adding milk to coffee can change the taste. This everyday example is used to illustrate how minor changes in variables can lead to different outcomes, a core idea in statistics. It ties into the history of statistical analysis and shows how noticing these differences can lead to important discoveries.
The book is well-researched and offers practical techniques. It’s perfect if you want to learn about statistics without getting bogged down by math. Overall, it’s an engaging and informative read for beginners.

With engaging examples and practical insights, it helps readers become informed consumers and make better decisions, all while debunking common myths.
Joacim (verified owner) –
Has a lot of interesting information and I learned a lot. I’m reducing it from 5 to 4 stars because of the writing. It’s not bad (at all), but it could have been more clear at times. It’s almost like the author is writing to people who already knows their stuff, but the concepts he’s talking about are more for beginners. So there’s a bit of a disconnect here. I recommend the book though.
Guisselle (verified owner) –
I don’t usually leave reviews, this was gifted to me by a girlfriend after I shared my need to improve on my data illustration skills. I loved it. Mr. Rutherford did a great job breaking down the process of it in nitty-gritty detail. Starting from how to collect data, filter through relevance, and choose the right illustration, he even gets down to which software to use. A lot was packed in this quick read. Worth it and easy to follow, in my opinion!
Zulkifli (verified owner) –
I never thought I’d describe a book about statistics as “engaging,” yet here we are. Storytelling with Statistics somehow takes all those cold, intimidating numbers and transforms them into a compelling narrative that even a non-math person like me can appreciate. The book teaches how to present data clearly, honestly, and (dare I say it?) entertainingly. The writing style is smooth, and the explanations are straightforward—no confusing jargon or endless equations that make you regret your life choices. It’s like having a data-savvy friend who patiently explains things without making you feel like an idiot.
The structure is solid, with practical examples that make the concepts stick. I especially love how the book tackles misleading graphs and manipulated data—because let’s be real, we’ve all been fooled by fancy-looking charts before. Five stars because it made me rethink how I present information, and now I feel like a data ninja. If you want to make stats less snooze-worthy and more impactful, this book is your secret weapon!
McKey (verified owner) –
A good book on data representation for beginners. Those who are into the subject will likely be familiar with everything. Data formats and possible representations are well described. It’s too bad the author doesn’t mention a tool like Tableau. It is also suitable for beginners, but the level of variation in data representation is prohibitive. Overall, a great job.
LeeO (verified owner) –
This book did a good job at immersing me in the craft of data visualization – from the pitfalls to best practices, from illustration styles to different online charting apps, from storytelling to ethics, Rutherford covered it all. A nice, quick primer for those seeking not only to understand charts and graphs but also be able to create some.

I’ve taught continuing education seminars for 8 years and I can testify to the value of these communication skills and methods.
Stirling (verified owner) –
If I had one critique, it’s that the examples, while useful, occasionally lean into the overly familiar (Disney, Google Ads, etc.), and I found myself wanting one or two fresher, more unexpected case studies. Also, the formatting can sometimes feel a bit like a training manual, practical, but not always gripping.
Still, I walked away with a clearer understanding of how to think about data less like a spreadsheet and more like a story waiting to be told. Definitely worth a read if you work with data—or present it to people who don’t.
