Joe Walker Podcast (spotify) did a really interesting interview with Nassim Taleb.

I think you’d like Debt by David Graeber. When i first listened to it, it blew my mind, everytime i’ve listened to or read it since i’ve found more understanding.

The Consequences of the Peace by Keynes. That Bloomsbury playa predicted ALL of IT in that book.

Currently i’m getting into Mariana Mazzucato. Starting with Mission Economy. Its topical in Australia now because apparently her work has influenced the Treasurer’s thinking.

How Asia Works by Joe Studwell is super interesting as well. What a trip South and East Asia have been on!

The book i wish was more impactful on people’s minds than it has been is, Poor Economics by Duflo, and Banerjee. They cut to shreds the rich world idea, that the poor are poor by dint of their own, so called, ‘poor’ choices. They are very honest in their delivery.

A lot of these aren’t straight econ or finance though i suppose. They play around the edges and use the events the respective books are about to communicate the ideas. But i find that more interesting than more out of a context, assumption driven economic theory texts.
