Reviews of Books I Didn’t Read: SuperFreakonomics
11th December 2009
Steve Sailer is the personification of insouciance.
My impression after a half hour is that SuperFreakonomics is very competently done. I didn’t see anything implausible, in contrast to the way you can’t read Gladwell for 3 minutes without stumbling upon something that sounds just plain wrong. (SuperFreakonomics elicited much angry response because it expresses some skepticism about Climate Change dogma, but I don’t know anything about climate, so I skipped those parts.)
That sounds about right.
