Awesome book! It was like an addictive TV show. - [10 Dec 2009]
I picked up the first book Freakanomics, and it was just so interesting I had to buy Superfreakanomics. This book will make you think. Even if you don't like what you read, it's difficult not to be enthralled with the questions that they ask and the answers...
