Nate Silver created a new baseball prediction system and accurately predicted the 2008 election. He solidified his status as a national political forecaster by predicting perfect predictions for the 2012 elections. Silver is the founder and editor-in-chief of FiveThirtyEight.com.
In keeping with his mission to find the truth in the data, Silver visits the most successful forecasters in fields ranging from the hurricanes to baseball, from the poker tables to the stock markets, and from Capitol Hill to the NBA.

And did their predictions come true? He explores unexpected similarities and finds unexpected comparisons. And sometimes what matters is not how good a forecast is in absolute terms, but how good it is compared to competitors. In other respects, however, divination is a fundamental and dangerous science.
