Unread Books
My pile of unread books. Photographed because all of a sudden, they really started to pile up. From the top:
John Bogle - Little Book of Common Sense Investing
*Frederic Bastiat - Economic Sophisms
Amartya Sen - Development as Freedom
*Milton Friedman - Capitalism and Freedom
Michael Lewis - Moneyball
*James M. Buchanan - What Should Economists Do?
*David Friedman - The Machinery of Freedom
Douglass North - Structure and Change in Economic History
*Tyler Cowen - In Praise of Commercial Culture
Nassim Nicholas Taleb - The Black Swan
Adrian Tomine - Summer Blonde
Yves Chaland - Freddy Lombard: Chaland Anthology #1 and #2
(half cut off) Rullier and Stanislas - By The Numbers
* Purchased after the good reviews from Don Boudreax on his blog and a Pittsburg Tribune column.
The comics come from my recent French/Euro comics kick. The Douglass North is there because it was one of opstorm's coursebooks, and is highly recommended (he won a Nobel prize for related work). The Michael Lewis is a cool book about baseball. Taleb is awesome, yet the book still remains barely read. And the Tomine was only purchased to depress the_beckster (to prove that comics can be emotionally crushing at times). BTW, it worked.
