"Little data"--Stock reports, newspaper headlines, weather forecasts, etc.-- is what will help you make smarter decisions at work, at home, and in every aspect of your life. The average person consumes approximately 30 gigabytes of data every single day, but has no idea how to interpret it correctly. Johnson and Gluck explain how to correctly interpret all of the small bytes of data we consume in a day.
