I liked it a little until I is the last chapter on global climate drier than reading a book of science. Rating: 2 / 5
I have not read this book, but I know risks of climate change is linked would highly recommend enough that we can bet these authors. A professional player of all time in Paris, more than half his bankroll, secure on one thing. To move the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions that is on any lot less than a sure thing to leave. Rating: 1 / 5
I enjoyed Freakonomics much. Not as a specialist in the areas they cover, I have confidence in their presentation of the facts. Their analysis, even against the tide seems convincing, and probably right. Unfortunately, their misrepresentation of CO2 emissions and climate change in this book so clearly underestimated designed in such a way to sell books, instead of showing a glimpse, it calls into question their overall approach to objective analysis. Very disappointing. Rating: 1 / 5
Once again, Levitt (The Economist) of the two authors, gave himself a prominent heads of pays.Il there are people who left do not like people do not agree with them, the pan in this book without reading it, because Good Grief , Levitt times against the tide on an issue that the left wants to – global warming – closed, because the left knows that it is strong evidence to consider the issue further. Levitt and simple solutions that you interefere with the green industry to grow around the climatique.La warming, why are there so many faint stars on the ratings is that the Left is concerned that you have read this book, and send them directly to the team opposing views they dislike. Rating: 5 / 5
After the execution by the 216 pages, it’s sad that I began SUPERFREAKONOMICS has nothing to do with the financial wizardry of Rick James! Do not Fool Me Once, Mr. Levitt and Mr. Dubner. . . Rating: 5 / 5
