'Perhaps the most popular book on statistics ever published ... It's a marvel ... gave me a peek behind the curtain of statistical manipulation, showing me how the swindling was done so that I would not be fooled again' Tim Harford

In 1954, Darrell Huff decided enough was enough.

How to Lie with Statistics is the result - the definitive and hilarious primer in the ways statistics are used to deceive.

With over one and half million copies sold around the world, it has delighted generations of readers with its cheeky takes on the ins and outs of samples, averages, errors, graphs and indexes.
