Title: A fantastic, startling book that challenges conventional wisdom
Product review: As it's subtitle implies, Freakonomics is a book that reveals the hidden side of everything, and goes beyond conventional wisdom, and uses economics to answer some interesting, provocative riddles, such as whether sumo wrestlers or teachers cheat, whether the name you give your child influences how successful they grow up to be, what influenced the huge crime drop in the 1990's, and why most crack dealers still live with their mothers. Almost all of the questions grabbed me, and compelled me to keep reading, and I found this to be a very refreshing read, with some very controversial, and interesting topics addressed. This is a must read for any avid fan of non-fiction!
