And how do we know who we really are?

Após partir o pão e beber o vinho, durante a Consagração em uma missa, o padre Miguel Flores morre no altar. Eve Dallas confirma que o vinho continha cianeto de potássio em dose suficiente para matar um rinoceronte.

Tudo isso mostra que o "padre Flores" provavelmente não era quem seus paroquianos tanto admiravam.

Levitt and co-author Stephen J. Dubner show that economics is, at root, the study of incentives: how people get what they want, or need, especially when other people want or need the same thing. In Freakonomics, they explore the hidden side of...well, everything. The inner working of a crack gang...the truth about real-estate agents...the secrets of the Klu Klux Klan. What unites all these stories is a belief that the modern world is even more intriguing than we think. All it takes is a new way of looking, and Freakonomics will redefine the way we view the modern world.
