Book Reviews of More Sex Is Safer Sex: The Unconventional Wisdom of Economics

Book Review: Unconventional wisdom (with the emphasis on 'wisdom')
Summary: 5 Stars

Maverick author Steven E. Landsburg cannot be thanked enough for writing this book. Confrontations with Doreen over my frequent late nights 'at the allotment' were becoming a trifle annoying. Her recent visit to my patch (during which she discovered that the allotments have yielded relatively little produce since building-work began on the Tesco Superstore over four years ago) did little to ease her silly nagging. Thank Icke that the author has given me some backup! Doreen's claim that I am guilty of 'serial indiscretion' is a thoroughly unjust description of my covert heroics. I, Wayne Redhart, have undertaken a one-man campaign to promote carnal safety to as many women as possible (and, sufficient intoxication permitting, the odd man). She isn't fully won over yet but, thanks to this book, I feel it is only a matter of time before she comes to look upon me as a towering beacon in the noble crusade against STDs.
