Freakonomics, de S. D. Levitt y S. J. Dubner, es un bestseller mundial, una obra curiosa, original e interesante de dos jóvenes economistas norteamericanos; un libro accesible que incluye ejemplos sorprendentes. Los autores han intentado mostrar el lado oculto de las cosas y explicar por qué el mundo funciona como funciona a través de las leyes de la economía --que se desvelan como una ciencia útil para comprender nuestras acciones--; lo que denominan «la economía de lo raro».

December 16, 2007: Freakonomics was a very easy book to read. Usually books about the economy are full of complex words and over the top stories. But Freakonomics is exactly the opposite. The stories are funy, and easy relatable. And they have reasonable truth to them. This point of view Levitt creates looking into our society's economy is creative and his book is one everyone should read!
