Synopsis

A journalist's accessible guide to how statistics are manipulated in media and public discourse — the core of the book is exposing deception through data, which is why nonfiction/science/how-to fit better than fiction genres. Moods lean informative/thought-provoking/satirical because Huff uses wit and irony to mock the dishonest tactics he exposes. No fiction tropes apply since this is expository nonfiction with no plot or characters.
