Notes: Further Reading and Research
Author’s Note: Throughout Likeonomics I have included numbered endnotes to offer a source for particular pieces of data or quotes that were used. As with any book, there were some sections where I didn’t include notes only because it can very distracting to have five numbered notes on every page. You will find many of the references below, but a more complete list of the resources used (all indexed by chapter) is available at www.likeonomics.com/endnotes.
At this site you will be able to see images and articles about the stories included in the book, as well as highlights and quotes that I wasn’t able to incorporate but will still be useful and interesting. And, perhaps most importantly, all of the links are clickable so you don’t have to type in an insanely long link that might be mentioned here in the Notes section.
