Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
What do cars, toys, people, and jelly beans have in common? They can all be estimated. Two friends try out their estimating skills and find that estimating can have real rewards -- especially when there's a contest to enter!
"Level 3, estimating."
Includes bibliographical references (p. 33).
Uses a dialog between two friends, one who estimates, one who counts precisely, to show estimation at work in everyday life.
