One of the authors read this audiobook. Has some interesting chapters on incentives and causes of crime from an economic point of view - including cheating on standardized tests, asymmetric information when using a real estate agent, causes of increases/declines in crime waves, and reasons why thugs start gang wars. Stimulating book, quick read.
