Chapter 11 | Logic and Statistics: Keeping Thought from Being Held Hostage by Intuition
Logic and statistics protect judgment from emotion, anecdote, false certainty, and misleading data.
Core idea: They teach us to ask whether conclusions follow, whether samples are meaningful, and whether probability is being misread.
How to read it: treat the chapter as a working frame. Identify the situation it describes, the mistake it warns against, and the standard it asks you to build into your own system.
Static practice: Take one popular claim and check its logic, evidence, sample size, and alternative explanations.
