"Overall, the book presents an insightful recount of how the use of data in car safety has changed over time, and gives a glimpse of what the future might look like. The author has used graphics effectively throughout the book. It is an interesting read for those particularly interested in automotive safety and/or the use of data or statistics in car safety, and in social processes in general."
