On my way back… from San Francisco to Europe – I had the pleasure (I had 17 hours of travel to kill) to read Freakonomics the book. I know I am way late in commenting this book, but for some reason it did just not end up on my commute-reading-list.

Since most of you reading my blog most likely read this book already – I will spare you the pompous review and simply conclude that:

“Any serious analyst who are eager to move beyond reporting and basic cross-analysis of a few metrics and into matters beyond the low hanging fruits MUST read Freakonomics the book.“

You will get two things from this book that are essential:

1. The desire to ask even more interesting questions with your data
2. The desire to use Regression analysis even more

Let us start to investigate…. :-)
