Professional economist, expert witness and author of the book - EVERYDATA: The Misinformation Hidden in the Little Data You Consume Everyday - John H. Johnson talks to us about how you can understand all the data around you, from newspaper headlines, stock reports, weather forecasts or even the blinking numbers on your alarm clock, so you can make smarter decisions at work and at home.
