By Vaclav SmilNumbers Don't Lie: 71 Things You Need to Know About the World book by Vaclav Smil
Is flying dangerous? How much do the world's cows weigh ? And what makes people happy ? From Earth's nations and inhabitants, through the fuels and foods that energize them, to the transportation and inventions of our modern world - and how all of this affects the planet itself - in Numbers Don't Lie, Professor Vaclav Smil takes us on a fact-finding adventure, using surprising statistics and illuminating graphs to challenge lazy thinking. Smil is on a mission to make facts matter, because after all, numbers may not lie, but which truth do they convey ? Published By Penguin Group on 2021
