Choose Choice, Dammit, or the Dog Gets It! (Shameless Book Pitch Edition)
_Choice_ is a great read regardless of political persuasion because the articles do a good job of following the facts to a conclusion rather than cherry-picking facts to support a conclusion. Liberals and conservatives will each find things to support and decry here, and they will all be challenged. _Choice_ also includes a number of interviews with luminaries like Norman Borlaug and Milton Friedman (and even Drew Carey).
If you're looking for something to support your point of view, _Choice_ may not be for you. But if you're looking for a collection of articles that will challenge you, this is the place to start.
That's from Andrew Olmstead's customer review of Choice: The Best of Reason at Amazon. Don't you want to be challenged? Rub shoulders with Nobel Peace Prize winner Norman Borlaug? Well, for god's sake, buy a copy of Choice right now, then.

At the amazon.com review, I like the list of "statistically improbably phrases" that are noted as appearing in the book:
SIPs: congestion coalition, glowing vomit, level playing field theory, sex with dogs, culture boom (more)
(The interview with Dave Barry and the discussion of "sex with dogs" was great, by the way.)

Nick, Do you really think people here are that old as to remember that National Lampoon cover? I had a subscription at the time and Captain Ruthless was too square back in 1973.
