ccaedi 's review for:

Everybody Lies: Big Data, New Data, and What the Internet Can Tell Us about Who We Really Are by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz

3.0

---

Skims the surface of a very big idea without delving too far into the "how" or the "what's next". Some connections seemed a little too simple, so I'm very curious about what experts in the various fields he touched on would do with the data he's assembled (linguistics, education, communications). As it is, this book serves as an academic sampler, with teasers of what could be coming.
