There's also "The Book of Why", which is a pop-sci-ish book by Pearl and Dana Mackenzie. It contained just enough math and examples to get me really excited for causal inference, so I just bought "Causal inference in statistics" to see the theory in detail. If you want to learn what causal inference is about, but don't necessarily want to wade through a textbook immediately, I highly recommend "The Book of Why". https://www.amazon.com/Book-Why-Science-Cause-Effect/dp/046509760X https://www.amazon.com/Book-Why-Science-Cause-Effect/dp/0465...
