    I am an epidemiologist, not a statistical expert.  I would like to provide an unsolicited review of Dr. David Salburg's new book on Errors Blunders and Lies. As usual it is wonderful for both experts in statistics and in epidemiology.  THis can be read and understood by all segments of the scientific society from young beginning researchers to no hair/grey haired folk like. It is wonderful the way he weaves history and statistics.  I think this is a must read for all of science, and I would encourage that you look at it.  It is a quick, memorable, and very enjoyable read.
