Title: not really economics
Product review: This is one of the more overrated books on economics out there, first and foremost because most of its content has little to do with economics. It should really just be called "what the statistics tell us". It really lacks any of the insights into behavior and outcomes that are found when one is really utilizing economic principles. In fact, its focus on statistics reinforces the wrong perception that economics is all about numbers and math - it's not. At it's core, it's about fundamental and basic principles of human psychology, behavior and the difference between intent and desire and result.
