Good, not great. I definitely could have done without the self-help aspect, and the analysis seemed a little shallow.
I really enjoy these books. I like how they get you thinking about different problems/opportunities in the world.

It was an okay book. The biggest problem with it is if you're a fan of the podcast, I can't think of any new information I learned in the book that I didn't know already. I can almost hear Levitt and Dubner's voice when reading some parts.
fun conclusion to the bank life insurance terrorist trap. i guess the main point to this is to ask more questions than to assume. stomac microbs seems to be te main contributor to stomac ulcers.
I love these guys! I am a huge Freakonomics fan. This book was good, but was not mind blowing. I am going to sound picky, but I am tired of the references to the same old stories that every author uses. However, with that being said I grabbed some really great ideas to help me improve my thinking and productivity. This book is a good read and if you have not read a million lifestyle/how to books, then you will love the stories. Lastly, the examples they use in other cases are just fantastic and are the reason so many people love them. Anytime you can read about how to solve problems, then you know you will gain something.
Not as groundbreaking as Freakinomics, but still useful information.
