Book title: Superfreakonomics
Author(s): Steven D. Levitt & Stephen J. Dubner
Links: http://www.superfreakonomicsbook.com/
An intriguing read that feels more like a series of blog posts or eclectic magazine articles as opposed to a book of the magnanimity of Gladwell's Tipping Point/Blink/Outliers/What the dog saw (http://www.gladwell.com).
Nevertheless, I did enjoy a few chapters in particular: What Al Gore and Mount Pinatubo have in common?
In this chapter as i have touched upon earlier in my global warming article the authors look at global warming from an economic angle and to be honest they do quite a good job.
For further information you may just have to read it - but only certain sections of course!
