Reviews
"Steve Landsburg proves once again that he is better than anyone else at making economics interesting to noneconomists. Landsburg is provocative and playful in his mission to demonstrate how an understanding of economics will change the way you live your daily life. I loved this book."-- Steven D. Levitt, coauthor ofFreakonomics, "Long before the 'pop economists' there was Steven Landsburg, writing funny, jargon-free, shocking, and true essays on our material circumstances. But Landsburg knows something that other authors of bestsellers on the subject don't. He knows everything. Economics is not the study of money; it's the study of value. Everything is determined by our values. The science of everything is what economics is. And here, inMore Sex, what the reader will find is -- everything."-- P. J. O'Rourke, "Steve Landsburg is one of my favorite economics writers, and his new book is no exception. While I don't always agree with him, he usually gets me thinking, and he always entertains."-- Greg Mankiw, former Chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers and author of "Principles of Economics"

Synopsis
Landsburg shows how the rational behavior of each person--when combined together--produces the often bizarre, seemingly irrational behavior of crowds. "More Sex Is Safer Sex" is at times a controversial, but often entertaining, look at economics from a real-world perspective., In 'More Sex is Safer Sex', Landsburg offers readers a series of stimulating discussions that all flow from one unsettling fact - combining the rational decisions of each of us often produces an irrational result. Using a series of examples, he demonstrates the unconventional wisdom of economic theory.

- c***o (166)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoSeller had a reasonable price for this collectible. I wish the item was padded better because of its' value but thankfully it arrived in one piece despite the mailer having a sizable hole on the bottom by the time it arrived (presumably due to USPS shenanigans). Besides that, I had a good experience buying from them.

Great value for dollar, and it will be refurbed to replicate a more today’s type of concession vending to give it a new life….possibly an Apple Fritter Donut Wagon.
