I'm reading "The Logic of Life" and enjoying it quite a bit. The salacious and iconoclastic topics are a thrill, of course, especially to a misfit like me with a long-standing habit of being enraged by perceived hypocrisy. But beyond that, the book discusses some quite inventive techniques for testing hypotheses, as well as hard-nosed pragmatism and an honest treatment of certain theoretical follies previously besetting economic thought. So the knowledge it imparts should at least be reliable, regardless of its ultimate practical usefulness.
