Book Reviews of Freakonomics [Revised and Expanded]: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
Book Review: "Freakonomics" is a fun, easy read; makes you think
Summary: 4 Stars
For me this book was purely an entertaining, fun and easy read. I enjoyed the authors' style of writing and for the most part found the book easy to get through. I will admit that I merely skimmed a few pages when I lost interest in a topic (sumo-wrestling section) and I felt like the research into baby names went on too long, but overall I'd have to say that reading this book was a pleasant experience. Not a "must read" by any stretch of the imagination, but worth a look if you are like me and desperate for a book that doesn't cause me to lose interest by page 50.
