Actually, 2 government sanctioned studies that were intended to support
the anti-gun approach, were recently released and ended up confirming
that gun control laws do pretty much nothing to reduce crime. No Congressman
introduced legislation to renew the assult weapons ban because it has become
clear that gun control is inaffective. There is an impressive body of
evidence
that areas the have liberal carry laws have less crime. The research and
conclusions in Lott's book have been verified over and over. Most works
that conclude otherwise have been found to be biased or flawed.

That's a good book only if you've already made up your mind. However,
there are far too many inaccuracies and bad science in to be consider
credible.
