How to navigate uncertainty in an unpredictable world
Briefly

Spiegelhalter emphasizes humility in the face of uncertainty, arguing that predictive models often fail due to inherent assumptions and unpredictable human behavior.
The book skillfully illustrates how to measure and communicate uncertainty, illustrating through historical anecdotes how societal responses often misinterpret risk and chance.
By replacing intuitive reasoning with evidence-based analysis, readers are equipped to face uncertainty and make informed choices in complex situations.
Uncertainty is deeply personal, as demonstrated through the parable of the old man and his horse, showing how unpredictable events can reshape our perceptions.
