'''Freakonomics''' is a best-selling book by economist [[Steven Levitt]] and [[Stephen Dubner]]. The book aims to explain everyday phenomenon by applying the principles of economics. It touches on a wide variety of topics ranging from cheating in sumo wrestling and the public schools to the economics of drug dealing. One of the book's most controversial proposals, especially to conservatives, is that Roe v. Wade may be responsible for the reduction in crime seen approximately 15 years later.  The authors propose that this effect is due to  more poor single mothers aborting children who would have otherwise been likely to live a life of crime.
