Freakonomics

I finally finished reading Freakonomics during lunch today. Of course, I could have finished it Monday if I had realized that the epilogue, the only part I had yet to read, was three pages long. Freakonomics is about applying economic theory to everyday life. While the book was interesting to read, it did not have a lot of meat to it. It told some interesting stories and provided several conjectures; however, it completely glossed over how the Levitt came to his conclusions. I would recommend it for some light reading but if you are looking for something with a little oomph to it, you might want to try elsewhere.
