Topics: cars(bayes' theorem), crime (geomapping)
How: to recreate human complex systems of senses and judgement over them to complete tasks
- to deal with our world full of abnormal behaviour and circumstances
- the idea will truly play out and it's consequences.
Importance of dependant variables and the nature of humans as creatures of habit.

To teach the audience about various alg. methods the book builds upon previous chapters, so it's best read in order;
Previous topics: power, data
New topics: justice(sequential decision alg.), medicine(pattern recog.)
Interesting discussions:
- The tandem use of alg. and humans to overcome issues of bias or specificity
- Data ownership of DNA

General description:
Anecdotal,
Amusing,
Meandering yet staying on topic,
Considering the human interaction with applied algorithms found in life,
Descriptions of the maths/science behind stuff is good and not heavy in theory so easily understandable.
Raising good questions on the topics without prescribing "the" answer.
