I'm writing a short book

Greetings, carbon-based lifeforms,

No, I haven't given up blogging; it's just on hold, while  I'm writing a short book putting together some thoughts on what people do wrong with numbers, data, and models. It'll have a lot of pictures and be priced to move.

It'll include material from some blog posts and executive education materials, reworked a bit, of course, but there's a lot of extra work involved.

Here are some of the pictures, work in progress (as usual, click for bigger):

Live long and prosper,

Yes, the greeting is a paraphrase of the title of an AC Clarke book of collected essays.  Call it a homage.
