Review of Freakonomics (2010) by Bill C — 04 Oct 2011
I'd probably never read the book so it was my only chance to listen to these theories. I went in thinking this was going to be a highly slanted bash-fest. It really isn't that, if anything it's overly non-committal. Impossible to escape the cultural lens it subjects are liberal intellectual selection.
It is filled with 8ish short stories each about the same length. 3 are very memorable and the remainder make their point and keep going over the same ground. The one about sumo, got the point in the first 5 minutes and then they keep rehashing....
Whether conservative or Liberal personal philosophies will find this entertaining food for thought.
