By Steven D Levitt, Stephen J Dubner, Anatole Muchnik. 2006

DAISY audio (CD), DAISY audio (Direct to player), DAISY audio (Zip)
Movie and television tie-ins, Business and economics, Economics

Quel lien entre la législation de l'avortement et la baisse de la criminalité aux États-Unis ? Quelles sont les vraies… motivations des agents immobiliers ? Pourquoi les revendeurs de drogue vivent-ils plus longtemps chez leur mère ? L'économie, vue sous cet angle, incongru en apparence, mais qui est celui de la plus sérieuse rationalité des agents, des comportements, des causes et effets, traite de sujets peu conventionnels. Elle a reçu un nom : freakonomics, ou " économie saugrenue ". Elle jette une lumière de biais sur le désordre des événements ; elle met à nu des a priori à prétention de scientificité irréfutable ; elle transforme notre regard sur le monde globalisé, qui nous apparaît, pour finir, moins impénétrable et incompréhensible. 2006. Titre uniforme: Freakonomics.

By David Shields, Powell Caleb. 2014

They spend four days at a cabin in the Cascade Mountains, playing chess, shooting hoops, hiking; they rewatch My Dinner with André and The Trip, relax in a hot tub, and talk about everything they can think of in the name of exploring and debating life and art, marriage, family, sports, sex, happiness, drugs, death, betrayal - and, of course, writers and writing. 2014.

Movie and television tie-ins, Criticism

Through four decades, five television series comprising over seven hundred episodes, ten feature films, and an animated series, fandom's thirst… for more Star Trek stories has been unquenchable. From the earliest short-story adaptations by James Blish in the 1960s, followed by the first original Star Trek novels during the seventies, and on throughout the eighties, nineties, and into the twenty-first century, fiction has offered an unparalleled expansion of the rich Star Trek tapestry. But what is it that makes these books such a powerfully attractive creative outlet to some and a compelling way to experience the Star Trek mythos anew to others? Voyages of Imagination takes a look back on the first forty years of professionally published Star Trek fiction, revealing the personalities and sensibilities of many of the novels' imaginative contributors and offering an unprecedented glimpse into the creative processes, the growing pains, the risks, the innovations, the missteps, and the great strides taken in the books. Author Jeff Ayers has immersed himself in nearly six hundred books and interviewed more than three hundred authors and editors in order to compile this definitive guide to the history and evolution of an incomparable publishing phenomenon. Fully illustrated with the covers of every book included herein, Voyages of Imagination is indexed by title and author, features a comprehensive timeline, and is a must-have for every fan.
