Kellum Harris AP English 6th 1-12-14 Dear Mrs. Roeming, So far in the book Super Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, the topics of prostitution, sex-change operations, and gender inequality have been brought into a completely new perspective for this reader. My points of view were not only challenged, but my beliefs actually changed. I learned that some people whom society views as nasty, slutty, or ?over-reactive feminists? may be some of the smartest and most intellectual individuals in our society today.

By: Christian Boujaoude Wolff Pd. 3 Freakonomics is a book that digs deeper into concepts that seem obvious on the surface, but are more intricate and complex. I really liked this book because it dealt and talked about topics that are very important in this day and age. Things that people think and talk about everyday were discussed. Some topics were baby names, crime rate, and cheating. It taught me to question conventional wisdom because it may not always be true. There are few topics and specific situations that intrigued me throughout the book. Overall, the book was very educational and was very nice and easy to read due to how relevant the information was to me.
