[Books_] I read this on Feyzu's recommendation, highly recommended. A wall street person's perspective on uncertainty and how people are misled by it. The probability concepts are elementary but certainly important and generally under-appreciated by professionals and the public. There is a lot of hostility towards economists, especially financial economists which adds spice. (I seem to like books whose authors have the self confidence to attack well respected fields, persons: The history of pi and A different universe being other examples).
