Program Description

Description

The title for this month is Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt, 2020

This book takes an unconventional look at how the economy really works, from cheating and crime to sports and child-rearing, offering a very different view on what really matters and what really drives the economy. Levitt, a University of Chicago Professor and Clark Medal winner (awarded to a promising Economist under 40) searches for hidden incentives behind all kinds of behavior.

The Nonfictioneers book discussion group meets in-person with an option to participate via Zoom on the first Tuesday of the month at 6:00 pm (except December) to discuss contemporary non-fiction titles. New readers are always welcome. Please register below.
