Adults who lack basic science skills risk being bamboozled

There are so many people in the world who seem not to appreciate the beauty of mathematics. It has been associated with the words geeky and sophisticated. Now, a British scientist has proven that math and science are vital for adults.

Professor Dame Athene Donald says adults who lack basic science and math skills risk being deceived and making bad decisions. She believes teaching math and science to all people up to the age of 18 would produce a wiser population. The scientist argues that the ability to use math is more and more important as the modern day society grows more complex.
