Contents:

We were only trying to help -- Limberhand the masturbator and the perils of Wayne -- Hurray for high gas prices! -- Contested -- How to be scared of the wrong thing -- If you're not cheating, you're not trying -- But is it good for the planet? -- Hit on 21 -- When to rob a bank -- More sex please, we're economists -- Kaleidoscopia -- When you're a jet.

Summary: A curated collection from the most readable economics blog in the universe. Over the past decade, Levitt and Dubner freely admit that most of their posts were rubbish. But now they've gone through and picked the best of the best. You'll discover what people lie about, and why; the best way to cut gun deaths; why it might be time for a sex tax; and, yes, when to rob a bank. (Short answer: never; the ROI is terrible.).
