Review of More Guns, Less Crime

Tim Lee at the Center for Individual Freedom has a review of More Guns, Less Crime here:

Over a decade has passed since More Guns, Less Crime was released in 1998, immediately remaking the gun rights debate landscape. Lott, who brought an economist’s empiricism to a debate saturated in passion but short on probative data, proposed “a critical review of the existing evidence on gun control and crime.” Accordingly, he asked: “Does allowing people to own or carry guns deter violent crime, or does it simply cause more citizens to harm each other?”

Lott’s objective conclusion was controversial in 1998, less so today. . . .

Mention of the Third Edition of More Guns, Less Crime in America's First Freedom



There is 184 pages of new material, though for Chapter 10 alone and the accompanying support material there is 140 pages. But that is minor, and I am quite happy that they ran the note.

Thanks very much to Marianne Mele for sending me a copy of this review.
