A case against estimates - Jonathan Crossland
A seasoned software developer, author and bonsai grower.
GENRE: Non Fiction
Blurb:
This book explores cognitive bias and the human condition of estimation. It unpacks the fallacies and illusions we have created around the estimate. It looks at Why we estimate, Why estimates are correct and why they are wrong. But importantly it presents an alternative. The world is changing faster than ever, and here we are still doing ritualistic, ceremonial things not because they are good or valuable, but because that’s just the way its always been done.
