These may not sound like typical questions for an economist to ask. But Steven D. Levitt is not a typical economist . He is a much-heralded scholar who studies the stuff and riddles of everyday life -- from cheating and crime to sports and child rearing -- and whose conclusions regularly turn the conventional wisdom on its head. He usually begins with a mountain of data and a simple, unasked question. Some of these question concern life-and-death issues; others have a admittedly freakish quality. Thus the new field of study contained in this book: freakonomics.
