Mine! is one of those rare and treasured books that make you feel smarter and change the way you see the world. I haven't had an experience like this as a reader since Freakonomics.

Fascinating... It's immensely clarifying, beautifully written, and perfectly timed -- and it might improve the world to boot. ? Cass R. Sunstein, bestselling co-author of Nudge
