Last week I was stopped in my tracks when I heard something on the radio about data… bad data. Georgina Sturge, the House of Commons Library statistician was talking about her book ‘Bad Data’ and I rushed out to buy it.
It arrived a couple of days ago and I have not been disappointed. It’s an excellent read and, while the focus is government data, the learnings are applicable to any organisation striving to make data-based decisions.
I cannot recommend it enough – stick it on your Christmas list (or buy it for the data lover in your life)!
