Why numbers count : quantitative literacy for tomorrow's America

Résumé

Numeracy math literacy dominated by the spreadsheet is the currency of modern life. This authoritative study makes the case that "innumeracy" math illiteracy is rapidly becoming an active agent of disenfranchisement. Asked how we came to this point, the responses of a number of people who deal with math every day are published collectively here and make interesting and sobering reading.
