'Why I recommend "Freakonomics : A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side

by Steven D. Levitt

Interesting book. I was quite impressed with the way that the authors managed to present economic concepts with examples and language that are very laymen friendly. I was also impressed with the analysis that Steven Levitt had performed into reasons for dropping crime – I generally like stories of people busting conventional theories, and finding new ways to explain things. Anyway – good book. I recommend it.
