Just finished Bailout Nation by Barry Ritholtz. Well written, easy to read, focused on our recent transition away from capitalism.
Absolute fave, a must read, is Black Swan by Nassim (sp?) Taleb. Completely changed my understanding of risk and the occurrence of improbable events. Found it very difficult at the beginning because the writer is such a pompous ass but it is worth dealing with his attitude to get at the core message of the book.
