Title: It's OK
Product review: Before I read this book, I was told that it was the most thought provoking piece of literature in the last decade. Everyone I talked to raved about it, and said that the way they look at things will be forever changed. This is a slight exaggeration, but not far from my actual experience.After reading this book and being thoroughly disappointed, I have to ask the question - Have you actually ever thought about these issues before? If you had, Levitt's answers would seem pretty obvious... The book isn't bad per say, but it definitely is not worthy of praise. Seriously people, let's think about it. Drownings are more common than accidental gun shots? How many pools are there in America versus hand guns? How much more likely are small children to play at a pool without being supervised? Shocked? Hardly.If you have thought about any of these issues before, the book is not worth your time, energy, or money.
