What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
WITH A NEW FOREWORD CELEBRATING 20 YEARS SINCE PUBLICATION
Assume nothing, question everything.
This is the message at the heart of Freakonomics, Levitt and Dubner's rule-breaking, iconoclastic book about crack dealers, cheating teachers and bizarre baby names that turned everyone's view of the world upside-down and became an international multi-million-copy-selling phenomenon.
Asking provocative and profound questions about human motivation, Freakonomics will make you see the familiar world through a completely original lens.
'A sensation... you'll be stimulated, provoked and entertained. Of how many books can that be said?' Sunday Telegraph
'Prepare to be dazzled' Malcolm Gladwell
'Has you chuckling one minute and gasping in amazement the next' Wall Street Journal
