"This book tells the stories of radical researchers who have used experiments to overturn conventional wisdom. From finding the cure for scurvy to discovering what policies really improve literacy rates, Leigh shows how randomistas have shaped life as we know it. Written in a “Gladwell-esque” style, this book provides a fascinating account of key randomized control trial studies from across the globe and the challenges that randomistas have faced in getting their studies accepted and their findings implemented. In telling these stories, Leigh draws out key lessons learned and shows the most effective way to conduct these trials.

Andrew Leigh is shadow assistant treasurer and an Australian MP. Before entering politics he worked as an economics professor at the Australian National University. His books include Disconnected, Battlers and Billionaires, and The Luck of Politics.
