If something really mattered, somebody would have told me. Kelsey believed that for almost two years after she deleted the news apps from her phone. Then, at a birthday party, she learned that the plant where her brother-in-law worked would close. Everyone knew. This book does not ask whether you should go back. It asks whether the step you took costs you anything, and if it does, what, and how you would know.
Every figure in it is checked against its source and listed in the notes at the back. Where the book knows a figure only from a report about it, it says so.
Each piece of advice is marked. Tested means an experiment measured what happens when people follow it. Observed means there is data on people who did it, which is not proof that it works. Untested means the research found nothing direct, and the book explains why the advice is there anyway.
There is also a German edition, edited in German.
