sherming 's review for:
Superfreakonomics CD: Global Cooling, Patriotic Prostitutes, and Why Suicide Bombers Should Buy Life Insurance
by Steven D. Levitt, Stephen J. Dubner
I never read the first book, but thought I'd try this one. There's a lot to think about and question in this book, which purports to set the record straight on some things, like Kitty Genovese's apathetic witnesses, the need for car seats, climate change, altruism. However, much of what given as fact in the book goes unchallenged or simply seems to be correlation, not causation. I guess I ought to try to find the book in print, in hopes of seeing some citations that might help support the Steves' claims. Still, as I lead with, there's plenty of food for thought.
