Well, we have a forum devoted to Science Book Reviews, so I thought I'd start one on business and economics.

Analysis of credit crisis wins business award
A “lucid and prescient” explanation of the credit crisis, and how to survive it, has won the 2008 Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award.
When Markets Collide by Mohamed El-Erian was described by Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman’s chairman and chief executive and one of the judges, as “extremely accessible and compelling”.
. . . .
The book, published by McGraw-Hill in May before the latest convulsions of the credit crunch, has already had a big impact, partly because its author is also co-chief executive officer and co-chief investment officer of Pimco, the fixed-income fund manager.
Reviewing the book in July, the Financial Times’s John Authers said few people were “as well-positioned to understand markets” as Mr El-Erian, who has also worked at the International Monetary Fund and run Harvard University’s $35bn (£20bn) endowment fund.
