I’m currently reading The Long Emergency by James Howard Kuntsler (Amazon link). It’s probably terrible holiday reading (his basic premise is that Peak Oil is bearing down on us faster than we will develop technology to replace it), but I saw a woman reading it on the train the other day and it reminded me I wanted to really read it this time, not just get it from the library, leave it on my bedside table for two weeks, then return it. I hope to be done with it tonight so I can move on to something less depressing.
My recent tour of the blogosphere has found some interesting reading material to keep us well rounded and over educated:
Accept Defeat: The Neuorscience of Screwing Up (Wired; always an issue for traders)
The Equity Culture Loses its Bloom (Inst. Investor. Good for us futures brokers?)
Test Your Knowledge about Crude Oil (US Funds web site)
Humans Prefer Cockiness to Expertise (New Scientist. Maybe I need to brag more to get more business!)
