Pick Of This Year's Crop Of Books. For instance, the provocative title
The Wisdom of Crowds: Why the Many Are Smarter Than the Few and How Collective Wisdom Shapes Business, Economies, Societies and Nations and Emanuel Derman's
My Life As a Quant: Reflections on Physics and Finance.
And then there's the doomed-to-failure-but-always-interesting attempt to list
Mathematical Fiction, fiction with mathematical themes. It reminded me of the existence of group theory, and why I don't date a mathematician anymore. (Er, just kidding.)
