I was going to point out the same. The author, Tim Harford, has a blog in the Financial Times: http://blogs.ft.com/undercover/ http://blogs.ft.com/undercover/ I still believe Freakonomics to be a better read :) but the Undercover Economist book was pretty good too (I read it because I was looking for similar style books)
