Description: "Time" magazine reporter Kluger adeptly translates cutting-edge theory into high-octane history that surrounds the notion of simplexity--that simple things can be more complicated than they seem, and complex things more simple--and how this affects everyone.

Review Quotes: "Simplexity . . . is a study of human behavior, and the way we perceive things and events, and how our perception frequently causes us to make wrong assumptions and to perceive simplicity (or complexity) where it does not exist. The book is sure to be a deserved hit among the ever-growing Freakonomics crowd."--Booklist
