Asking the hard questions

Author David Freedman takes on the experts, and how they mislead us, if we let them. This original and common-sense critique of expert opinion traces how it gains credibility within a particular field, often spilling over to a much larger audience.

What's Right About "Wrong"

With insight and inventiveness, David H. Freedman synthesizes the latest research on not just why but how experts fail us.

Freedman's book is a wakeup call for me and the many people who tend to equate narrow expertise with reliable, and especially, knowledgeable advice. Oil industry engineers are only the latest experts to give us a false sense of security; who's next? This book offers great insights into the industry of...
