gladwell.com: "In fact, 'Freakonomics' specially singles out for ridicule the theory of broken windows, which I suggest in the Tipping Point played a big role in New York City's recovery. So what gives? Why do I love a book so much, if it contradicts my own book?"

I got sent to Malcolm Gladwell's blog from the NYT. There's an interesting section where Gladwell discusses Freakonomics and his specific perspectives on the particularly controversial section about Roe v. Wade being a significant factor in reducing crime 18 years following.

His blog looks pretty entertaining with a section on NBA heuristics below the Freakonomics entry.
