Dos de Johan Norberg, yo personalmente no conocía estos datos:

1)
"So what did drive down crime [in the US in the 90s]? The panelists didn’t have a grand unified theory, but they offered a few explanations. One was the influx of immigrants to America: studies have shown that crime in a neighborhood drops as the concentration of immigrants increases."

Tierney listens to the experts on crime at an AAAS seminar


2)
"A book is published every 30 seconds. This includes 10,000 new novels a year, with nearly 10 times that many on publishers´ back lists. The number of books in the world is growing at five times the rate of the human population. Even if you read full-time you’d need 163 lifetimes to get through all the books currently offered on Amazon."

Pensar que el número de libros traducidos al árabe en toda la historia es menor al número de los traducidos al español en un año.
