Statistics

There is a famous saying that goes, "There are three types of liars. Liars, Damn liars and statisticians". Quite a lot of unwarranted sarcasm, I would say, for people who painstakingly go through huge volumes of data and present it to us. All that would change if data were presented like this. Statistics guru, Hans Rosling, presents a lot of data on the developing world in the most pleasing format possible.
