I'm starting to read this recently released book and for mongers here it may be interesting reading. Although it's a book on Economics, the authors Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner turn conventional thinking on it's head with real life examples and point out some answers you wouldn't normally think of.
The very first chapter is titled - Street Prostitute like a department store Santa.
Rather amazing connections are made and amongst the things it reveals, with regard to us, is:
- How Family Reunions help prostitutes,
- Why the police tolerate pimps,
- how an escort raised her price from $300 an hour to $500, raised her income by 46% and actually had less sex.
- how the income of a F to M transgendered person is greater than a M to F.
The book isn't purely for economists and anybody with an interest in business or an inquisitive mind would find it interesting.
