Title: Very insightful Review: Levitt and Dubner do a great job of looking at numerous issues from a new perspective. The abortion crime link is really interesting. The book is in stark contrast to Malcolm Gladwell's work which is basically a 3 page article turned into a book. This work seems like a lot of research boiled down into a short book.The NY crime analysis is the best example of this, Gladwell treats the story as a gotcha story which has one simple explanation which was waiting for him to discover (or Rudy Guliani as it were). Levitt and Dubner attempted to look at the issue with real data and thoughtful analysis.The presentation and analysis throughout the book is in depth (if incomprehensible to a novice such as myself) and as transparent as can be in such a short book.The only negative I have is in relation to their follow up, Superfreakanomics. The sequel is everything the original is not and could easily have been the work of Gladwell himself. Does this product review convey a negative or positive sentiment?

Title: Not Zahn's best work Review: I had trouble staying engaged, and in fact put the book down for a few weeks after which I had lost major parts of the plot.The 4 stormtroopers besides LaRone kind of blended together without any discerning personality traits, and the Luke/Han/Leia subplot seemed bolted on just to give the fans a taste of the main characters.Overall it was okay and it was interesting to get a glimpse of the story between ANH and ESB, but I'd say it's Zahn's worst novel to date.
