    <body><![CDATA[If you are an Economics fan, you would love this book.  It is like Freakanomics, but with actual data!  It takes theory and pairs it with the power of regressions (remember those Econometrics classes?) but keeps it in a simple conversational tone, so even those who aren't Econ majors can follow.  The author is my co-worker (okay, he works at the corporate headquarters back east, but I was on a conference call with him once) and he's a genius.  You should also check out his website: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.whynot.net/">http://www.whynot.net/</a> for some GREAT ideas that often make you think, &quot;Why didn't I think of that?&quot;]]></body>
