What is the Lognormal Distribution and How does it Help Me
podcast episode with speaker Chris Jackson

And the good thing is that all you need is just a little bit of knowledge about how something breaks (and is repaired) to help use the lognormal distribution to help you make lots of important decisions … easily!
