Irrationality of numbers — 3 years ago
NOT WORTH CONSUMING
The book talks about the excessive rather obsessive use of numbers and measurement, in general. Apart from a historical ramp of statistics starting from Bentham, John Stuart Mill, Keynes and more recently Edgar Cahn of the Time Dollars fame, this book contains nothing of a story. Beating round the bush, if I say.
