Award-winning author, journalist, and TV personality Stephen
Dubner is the co-author of the international bestseller Freakonomics.
Through forceful storytelling and wry insight, Dubner shows
how economics is, at root, the study of how people get what
they want, especially when other people want
the same thing. Dubner spent several years at the The
New York Times as an editor and writer, and has also
written for The New Yorker and Time. He
has written two previous bestselling books, Choosing
My Religion and Confessions of a Hero-Worshipper.
Dubner and economist Steven Levitt are currently working on
another book, tentatively titled Superfreakonomics.
