Book #1
Per my resolution to read a book a week:
If you ever wanted to learn the difference between causality and correlation or how the tools of economics can be applied to figuring out questions like "why do drug dealers live with their moms" or "how is the KKK like a group of real-estate agents," then this book is for you. It may also get you to start challenging conventional wisdom although in all likelihood it would be with much less striking questions than those introducing each chapter.
The chapter I found most interesting was the one which asked, "do parents really matter?" And let me just say, things aren't necessarily so bad for Jayden and co.
If anyone wants to borrow my copy just ask.
