Guesstimation

After reading this informative and eye-opening book, readers will realize that successful guessing is not a matter of luck, and could almost be considered an art. Lawrence Weinstein and John A. Adams provide a wealth of examples to show how quick off-the-cuff guesswork can be surprisingly efficient and accurate, and they also provide tools and exercises by which readers can hone their abilities to make snap estimates about a wide variety of unknown quantities.
