Read this book!March 27, 2001 Cooper Richey(Calgary, AB Canada) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book belongs on the bookshelf of any serious analyst (not the Freudian kind, but the numerical kind!) Koomey has distilled years of experience into digestible guiding principles that will benefit the beginner and expert alike. It is rife with sensible recommendations that any in-the-trenches analyst will be able to put into practice on a daily basis. Koomey's book played a fundamental role in the development of my own analytical thinking and continues to be a vital source of guidance. If you want to improve your critical thinking skills, read this book!
The treatment for information overloadFebruary 17, 2001 An Economist(Cambridge, MA USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Computers and the Internet are deluging us with information. Jon Koomey's book provides the best set of tools and techniques I've encountered for managing the growing information overload we all face. Dr. Koomey richly illustrates these techniques with practical real-world examples making them accessible to knowledge workers at all levels. I recommend this book to my students at MIT and I recommend it to anyone who needs to make efficient and effective use of data.
