About the Book

‘Kiko Llaneras is one of the most consistently interesting data journalists to have emerged in the last decade’
John Burn-Murdoch, Chief data reporter, Financial Times

It’s almost impossible to feel confident we’ve made the right choice when we are constantly faced with conflicting data. From choosing the right school for our children to understanding major social and political events, making informed decisions can feel overwhelming. In a world overflowing with data, it is more important than ever to decipher what the numbers tell us.

Drawing on years of work interpreting and explaining data about almost anything, renowned data journalist Kiko Llaneras offers practical tools and shortcuts to help you understand the numbers and make better decisions using a quantitative lens. Through a series of compelling examples, he reveals some of the surprising insights that a data-driven perspective can offer such as:


  • What caused the Chernobyl disaster
  • How Barack Obama made decisions and slept so peacefully during his presidency
  • Why so many footballers are born in January


An essential guide for decoding the complexities of our modern world, Think Clearly will transform the way you view and use data in every aspect of your life.

Review :
Kiko Llaneras is one of the most consistently interesting data journalists to have emerged in the last decade. His unique combination of statistical rigour and a flair for explanation has brought new and fascinating perspectives to everything from politics and sports to the COVID pandemic, and every time I read his work I leave with a deeper appreciation of the subject. Common sense to unravel the data jungle. Kiko Llaneras has established himself as the Spanish leading voice in data journalism thanks to his keen eye for how to extract meaning from data, and for how to present it to the public. Piensa Claro is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to sharpen their critical thinking skills in an increasingly data-driven world. If you want to get better at interpreting and explaining data (or know someone who does), I’d recommend Think Clearly by Kiko Llaneras - it’s full of great data journalism insights and examples.
