However, in as many ways as they are the same, they are different. While Freakanomics deals with applying economic theories and algorithms to real-life, then explained in plain English to lay people. This book instead deals with pure economics in the context of economics, but again explained in the same easy to understand manor. <br/> <br/>I thoroughly enjoyed this book, it has definitely left a mark and moved to the top of my favorites. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/512845?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
