Title: Topics sound interesting but should be "Freakonomics for Dummies"
Product review: This book is as popular as it is intellectually devoid of any concrete material. The authors have managed to get good topicnames and chapter openings but the content is superficial. If you read the book carefully and think about it, you can summarize the book in 5-10 pages.It is interesting to read because of the correlations but nothing more than that.Levitt and Messrs have used regressions, etc to only make it sound scientific but anyone equipped with economics 101 will know this stuff.Again, this book is at a very preliminary level. The material is inspired from "The tipping point" and if you have read that book, you can see that the authors have used similar examples. Maybe they just want to ride the success of other popular books.But I must give it to them - they make you think about hidden causalities.
