Description
In an increasingly data-driven world, we rely on numbers to make decisions about everything from healthcare and education to business and politics. But what happens when we trust numbers too much? The Number Bias explores how our obsession with quantification is leading us astray.
Authors Sanne Blauw and Suzanne Heukensfeldt Jansen reveal the pitfalls of numerical thinking and show how metrics can mislead, oversimplify, and fail to capture what truly matters. Through compelling examples and research, they demonstrate why some of the most important aspects of life—human connection, creativity, well-being—resist measurement.
This thought-provoking book challenges readers to reconsider their relationship with data and numbers, advocating for a more balanced approach to decision-making that values both quantitative and qualitative insights.
