This is the book for book club in April 2026. While Duffy provides a lot of interesting facts that you're likely to get wrong, I'm not convinced that he adds a lot to the discussion about helping change peoples minds with facts. Oh sure he's got a few ideas, but a book like The Data Detective does a much better job at helping us learn to combat our own biases and Think Again does a far better job teaching us to converse with those we don't agree with in a manner that is beneficial. Duffy mostly shows us that we're going to be wrong with most of our guesses on topics like how many immigrants our country has, or how what is the percentage of drug users, without providing many in depth solutions to fixing these systemic issues.
