Book by Jordan Ellenberg. Applies math logic to ordinary issues including obesity, voting, baseball, and cancer. It is non technical and he writes very well. A little esoteric at times but not too often. Those who like Taleb and Kahneman will enjoy this.

"Liberalism is arbitrarily selective in its choice of whose dignity to champion." Adrian Vermeule
During the week a friend was complaining about a math component to her degree she hadn't seen coming. It made me realise I remember close to nothing from high school math. Pretty disconcerting actually.
