"Math for Writers" does more than simply help you figure out percentages and offer reminders of the math you've forgotten since high school. Laura Laing helps you analyze data coming from government reports and political polls to see through the spin and help your readers do the same.
Even better, she helps writers figure out whether you can make a living freelancing, managing book advances, and setting rates for your freelance business. As everyone knows, "it all comes down to the numbers." This book will help you figure it all out.
Full disclosure: I won a copy of the book at the Write Now Coach blog, but you'll get more than enough value at the cover price.
