This book explores the economics of unnoticed everyday life such as, the incentives that we get from our names, why sumo wrestlers/ teachers cheat, the secrets of the KKK, the truth about not so truthful real estate agents, the reasons why crack dealers still live with their mothers.. Freakonomics explores the hidden truths behind so many, until now, unanswered and unquestioned questions. Levitt and Dubner have brought new found interest to the subject long thought to be a world of number crunching and bankers.
Overall Impression: Kudos! Smartly Written.
Okay! You got my attention. I'm going to the library at lunch to get a copy, hopefully. I'll get back at ya!
