That’s “Causality: models, reasoning, and inference By Judea Pearl”...? “Not mathy”? It’s jammed full of dense maths! It has integration symbols, summation symbols, logic, probability, theorems and lemmas coming out of its ears! Obviously, Pearl is showing off to impress his peers ;-)
okay, you’re right they’re in there, but Pearl uses those in the proofs, not the explanations, as I recall. I don’t think you have to understand the proofs to get the idea.
If you find math oppressive, let me know if you try Pearl and find it too daunting. If that happens, I’ll change the way I describe the book, I promise.

Probably a little, but it does help you find mistakes where they exist.
(Okay, that was showing off.)
