Negative Positive
Title: Provocative, informative and at times flat-out amusing...
Review: This book is not only interesting, it is exceptionally well-written -- not always a hallmark of nonfiction, particularly economics texts. If you pick it up to browse, start with the chapter on the KKK -- it is truly amusing.While there isn't much of a coherent theme to this book, it is a good look at some provocative information (some of it squirm-inducing, to be sure) that seems to be based on pretty convincing numbers. My impression is that Levitt and Dubner are sincere in their desire to presents facts based on accurate statistics and not on an agenda. It makes for a sometimes unsettling but always fascinating read.
