New Additions to the SAS Publishing Bookstore
The Flaw of Averages: Why We Underestimate Risk in the Face of Uncertainty
By: Sam Savage
This book is a must-read for anyone who makes business decisions that have a major financial impact.
The Flaw of Averages typically results when someone plugs a single number into a spreadsheet to represent an uncertain future quantity. Savage finishes the book with a discussion of the emerging field of Probability Management, which cures this problem through a new technology that can pack thousands of numbers into a single spreadsheet cell.
Instead of statistical jargon, Savage presents complex concepts in plain English. In addition, a tightly integrated Web site contains numerous animations and simulations to further connect the seat of the reader's intellect to the seat of their pants. 392 pp.
