Reviews
"""A humdinger of a book: page-turning, politically incorrect and ever-so-slightly intoxicating, like a large swig of tequila."" -- ""Times (London)"" ""Lie back and let Levitt and Dubner's bouncy prose style carry you along from one peculiarity to the next."" -- ""Sunday Telegraph (London)"" ""Whether one agrees with the authors or not, Dubner's high-energy reading and obvious glee over some of the great 'got-cha!' moments make for addictive listening."" -- ""AudioFile"""
