Seller's Description:
Fine in very good dust jacket. 7 CDs. Audience: General/trade. DISCS PLAY PERFECTLY, NO SCUFFS. BOX SHOWS SOME WEAR. *MAILED IN A BOX TO PROTECT FROM DAMAGE IN SHIPPING. * "Which is more dangerous: a gun or a swimming pool? What do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in common? How much do parents really matter? " These may not sound like typical questions for an economist to ask. But the author is not a typical economist. He studies the riddles of everyday life--from cheating and crime to parenting and sports--and reaches conclusions that turn conventional wisdom on its head. He explores the inner workings of a crack gang, the truth about real estate agents, the secrets of the Ku Klux Klan, and much more. He shows that economics is, at root, the study of incentives--how people get what they want or need, especially when other people want or need the same thing.
This is a very thought proving book and helps one think past the "obvious"

Great book. A must read.
The authors do a great job taking statistics and relating it to the real world we live in. A highly recommended read.

Freakonomics Makes Sense of the Spin
Creative thinking and numbers that do not hide the truth. Learn to look for the motivation behind the news topics. Wonderful read.

My Son-in-Law Loved It
This was a Christmas gift for my son-in-law and he loved it. And it was in such excellent condition that he was surprised to hear that it was a used book.
