Not too long ago, I finished Justin Fox’s Myth of the Rational Market ^[1]. I’m about halfway through Scott Patterson’s The Quants ^[2].

I have the following lined up in my queue:

• Roger Lowenstein’s The End of Wall Street ^[3]

• Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner’s Super Freakonomics ^[4]

• Michael Lewis’ The Big Short ^[5]

• Yve Smith’s Econned ^[6]

• Liaquat Ahamed’s Lords of Finance ^[7]

I am interested on any feedback you might have regarding any or all of these . . .
