Literary Nonfiction. Philosophy. Economics & Statistics.
Translated from the German by Karen Leeder. Acclaimed poet,
essayist, and cultural critic Hans Magnus Enzensberger takes a
fresh, sobering look at our faith in statistics, our desire to
predict the future, and our dependence on fortuitousness. Tracing
the interface between chance and probability in medical
diagnostics, risk models, economics, and the fluctuations of
financial markets, FATAL NUMBERS goes straight to the heart of what
it means to live, plan, and make decisions in a globalized,
digitized, hyperlinked, science-driven, and uncertain world.
Foreword by Gerd Gigerenzer. Illustrations by David Fried.
