Today is the day the last substantial changes are being made to the manuscript of SuperFreakonomics, which will be published on October 20. We feel it is considerably better than the first book but of course you will be the judge of that. Today is also the day, happily, that the book’s cover has been completed. It was executed by our friends at Number 17, with explosive and photographic assistance from the extraordinary Andrew Zuckerman. I love it very much, but I am pretty biased. I’m sure you will share your views, especially if they run counter to mine. (The black border around the title is fuzzy here only because this is an electronic version; it looks sharp in print.)


Looks really nice! Please have an audiobook version soon.
I can’t wait to read the book as I LOVED the frist installment.
But this book cover looks like something Kevin Trudeau would try to sell.
Your failure to use an image of Rick James, given the title, comes as a bitter disappointment.
Well, if you had to pick a topic to riff off of with the cover art, I would have preferred the prostitutes to the bombers, but that’s just me . . . LOL
Too gaudy and flashy, though I’m sure that’s forced by the marketing people. Looking forward to reading it regardless of the ugly cover though.
Does life insurance pay for suicides? I thought it didn’t
According to the Amazon page: “Customers buy this book with The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown”
I would not have predicted that combination!
Wow, that’s a lot of really big text. Your explosive orapple looks kind of puny in comparison.
