Searching for Statistics Online

“There are three kinds of falsehoods, lies, damned lies and statistics.” * 

Statistics have long been used as a way to persuade others to agree to a certain point of view and bolster an argument but where can you find them? 

In this session we will look at a range of free and subscription resources available to student's providing statistics on a variety of subjects such as the economy, the population, market share and consumer lifestyles.  

* Benjamin Disraeli. In E. Knowles (Ed.), Oxford Dictionary of Quotations (2009, 7th Ed.).
