Have you seen the new book “Proofiness” by Charles Seife? It is about the falsehood of numbers, and part deals with statistics. I think you might like it. I do! I follow your sites and have enjoyed your musings. Like you, I enjoy statistics and libraries. I even used some of your writings in a literature review! Woohoo!
