THEY’RE BACK! AND THIS TIME IT’S SENSATIONAL. GLOBAL COOLING, PATRIOTIC PROSTITUTES & WHY SUICIDE BOMBERS SHOULD BUY LIFE INSURANCE.

Here at last is the long awaited follow up to the international bestselling phenomenon Freakonomics. Steven Levitt, the original rogue economist, and Stephen Dubner have uncovered the hidden side of even more controversial subject, and with their inimitable style and wit they will take us on another even more gripping journey of discovery.

The freakquel is even bolder, funnier and more surprising than its predecessor. With their unflinching analysis Levitt and Dubner overturn received wisdom: looking more deeply , asking more questions and, above all, thinking a little differently. Because sometimes the most superfreaky solution is the simplest
