Economist Levitt and Dubner in an unconventional way, debunk claims that have penetrated into the minds of many generations. Potential readers will unpack hidden details about theories that have created a conundrum among fellow citizens; students and teachers, real estate agents and sellers, parents and children etc. The erection of topics presented, give clear-eye glimpses of human behavior in the extremities of poverty, abortion, drug dealing, baby naming, cheating teachers. I recommend for anyone inquisitive about illusion versus reality.
