Members and fellow travelers of the Radical Statistics Group-scholars of statistics and people who use statistics in a wide range of fields-present a third book of critical reflections on the state of statistics, noting that in the changing terminology, statistics and statisticians are becoming data and data scientists. They cover how data are changing, counting in a globalized world, statistics and the changing role of the state, economic life, inequalities in health and well-being, and advancing social progress through critical statistical literacy.

Data is a social phenomenon. This book examines the ways in which we are constantly engaging with data—consciously and otherwise. The authors analyze the construction and use of statistics by governmental and non-governmental organizations, looking at how statistics are used in social discourse to advance interests and to achieve particular, often political, ends. Data in Society also considers the increasing power of private corporations and transnational organizations, looking at recent processes affecting ownership of and access to data, as well as the importance of data in uncovering and portraying social and legal injustices.
