Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything

by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner

ONE LINE SUMMARY: Steven D. Levitt, an economist, looks at cheating schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers, the Ku Klux Klan, drug dealers, abortion and parenting.

This is well-written and clear, and makes me wish the President of the United States had an economist like Levitt on his staff. I feel certain that Freakonomics 2: Return of the Freaky will soon be on its way to a bookstore near you.
