Trust me on this one. Just read it, if you haven’t already done so. Here’s an article by the authors about why the crack trade has quieted down (or at least why we’re no longer hearing about it). In the book, they explain why the violent crime rate has fallen so dramatically, why sumo wrestlers cheat, and how Superman destroyed the KKK. Refreshingly non-political look at a number of highly politically charged topics.
