Rezensionen
'Quantitative Reasoning: Thinking in Numbers is as engaging as it is informative. Zaslow takes intriguing questions, such as 'What impact do undocumented immigrants have on the US economy?' and 'Why is it dark at night?', and skillfully communicates the disciplinary knowledge, data, mathematical tools, and logical reasoning skills needed to approach these questions.' Allison K. Henrich, Seattle University
