Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything By Stephen J. Dubner and Steven D. Levitt (With a New Foreword Celebrating 20 Years Since Publication)

ASSUME NOTHING, QUESTION EVERYTHING. CELEBRATING TWO DECADES AS A GLOBAL, RULE-BREAKING PHENOMENON!

What do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in common? Why do crack dealers still live with their moms? And how much do parents really matter when it comes to naming their babies?

At the heart of Freakonomics lies a single, radical premise: standard conventional wisdom is almost always wrong. In this iconoclastic, multi-million-copy bestseller, rogue economist Steven D. Levitt and award-winning journalist Stephen J. Dubner cut through the noise of traditional thinking to explore the hidden, counter-intuitive side of everyday life. By applying unorthodox economic lenses to bizarre, unexpected scenarios—from cheating rings and real estate agents to criminal underworlds—they prove that incentives truly rule the world in ways we never imagine. Reissued with a brand-new foreword celebrating twenty years since its explosive debut, this modern classic continues to stimulate, provoke, and dazzle readers.
