Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt & Stephen J. Dubner Book Summary

Steven Levitt, uno dei più geniali e giovani economisti americani, ha colto al volo un'occasione paradossale: usare la scienza per risolvere problemi che apparentemente non la riguardano. Scardinando i luoghi comuni e sconvolgendo il normale buon senso, l'autore mette in relazione fatti apparentemente lontanissimi fra loro dando risposte logiche ai paradossi del nostro tempo. Il fascino degli incentivi analizzato attraverso i numeri, la pena capitale come pessimo deterrente al crimine, la forza dell'informazione specie se distorta ad arte, cosa devono veramente fare i genitori per invogliare i figli alla lettura... La morale si limita a dire come il mondo dovrebbe andare, ma è l'economia a dirci come va veramente. E da economista anticonformista, Levitt sottolinea come tutti possano mentire - lui compreso - ma i numeri proprio no. C'è un perché inoppugnabile al fatto che la maggioranza degli spacciatori vive ancora a casa con la mamma, o che il nome di battesimo faccia la differenza nella vita. Levitt esplora con rigore e ironia il "dietro le quinte" della nostra società. Best-seller internazionale e vincitore di numerosi riconoscimenti, Freakoconomics è una lettura divertente e straordinariamente intelligente che ci svela non solo il cosa, ma soprattutto il come e il perché. Per capire il mondo che ci circonda, per andare oltre il comune buon senso e diffidare sempre delle spiegazioni più ovvie.
