What might the author be like?

Based on the content of the book, I perceive Steven Levitt to be a very complex individual. He seems to be very analytic and I could never see him to settle with an obvious answer. Throughout the book, in almost every situation presented and analyzed, he presents the problem, states the obvious solution or explanation, refutes it, then explains why he disagrees with it. Based on the structure of the content of this book, I have developed a perception that the author requires routine and repetition in his life, and without these routines, he would go completely insane.
