Statistics is the science of
  1. planning observations,
  2. summarizing statistical data, and
  3. interpreting statistical data.

It is useful for anyone who is committed to learning from facts instead of authorities. Ignorance of statistics can leave one open to being lied to, cheated, and made to look foolish.
