tina: 3/26 or 1/26 Freakonomics
Hmm...so do we start from the beginning again? or do our book count keeps going? Nonetheless..I'm happy to re-contribute to the book club again, yay!!! Now that I'm out of school, out of job...I have more time to read!
I recently finished Steven Levitt/Stephen Dubner's "Freakonmics" http://www.freakonomics.com/ and it was pretty interesting. If you want to know what drug dealers are still living with their moms, crack vs. coccaine or why school teachers are like sumo wrestlers..this book can give you the answer through a riddle of stats and figures that both Stevens do best.
From the start, Steven Levitt brands himself as the unconventional economist - as he hates math, doesn't understand economics and all the theory that goes behind it..but instead, he prides himself with getting down to the bottom of why things are the way they are...
Interesting and fast read!
