Superfreakonomics By Steven D. Levitt And Stephen J. Dubner – Book Review
Article by marciano guerrero
Superfreakonomics by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner reminds me of the series of entertaining mysteries by Sue Grafton: A is for Alibi, B is for Burglar, C is for Corpse-with titles all the way to Z. Which makes me wonder where will the two authors of Superfreakonomics end milking the title?
While the first book Freakonomics was fresh, irreverent, informative, and filled with serious research, the sequel is short of exploitative. Telling and exposing human foibles is fine except when some of the exposition is presented as scientific research; much of it unrigorous.
