The Top 50 Most Read Articles (1/1/2005 to 12/31/2005)

The following 50 articles were the most viewed JOE articles between January 1 and December 31 of 2005. We offer this list as an indicator of trends in reader interest. It says a lot about the degree of interest people from around the world have in some of the topics discussed in JOE articles.

Bear in mind this list is not a reflection on the quality of the JOE articles that "made the list" as opposed to those that didn't. This list may be influenced by several factors (including the commonness of key phrases contained in a page and the length of time a page has been available online), and we caution against over interpretation.
