"New York Times" bestselling authors Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner return with more iconoclastic insight and observations in this long-awaited follow-up to their blockbuster "Freakonomics."
In 2005, "Freakonomics "exploded in the culture, forever changing our understanding of how the world works, how we really make decisions--even how we name our children. This revolutionary book spent two years on the "New York Times" bestseller list, sold more than 3 million hardcover copies, single-handedly spawned a new genre of books, and led to a column in the "New York Times Magazine" and a blog on the "New York Times" website. Now, University of Chicago economist Steven D. Levitt and award-winning writer Stephen J. Dubner return with this all-new book that is bigger, more provocative, and sure to challenge the way we think all over again.
