An explanatory note: in which we admit to lying in our previous book, introduction: putting the freak in economics, acknowledgements, notes and index. Colour illustrated paperback binding with black and white coloured titles to the front panel and black coloured titles to the back strip. Colour photographs of authors to the rear panel. Quoting from the rear panel blurb " ... Four years in the making Superfreakonomics will once again transform the way we look at the world. It reveals, among other things, why you are more likely to be killed walking front then driving drunk; how a prostitute is more likely to sleep with a policeman than be arrested by one; why terrorists might be easy to track down then you would imagine; how a sex change could boost your salary; and how there really is a cheap fix for climate change." Rubbing of the book edges and panels with age toning of the text block edges. A few marks to the lower text edge. First Australian edition. Size: 12mo (standard paperback). 320 pages,.
