Book of the Month: Outliers
Outliers: The Story of Success
Yet another book from Malcolm Gladwell which I would recommend. I learned a lot from the book. It re-inforced my views about success and the origins of intelligence :-)
But it is definitely not as good as his first or the second.

Book of the Month: Gotcha Capitalism
Gotcha Capitalism: How Hidden Fees Rip You Off Every Day-and What You Can Do About It
Depressing to read all the tricks that the corporations pull to deceive (read maximize) profits. Some would say that is what is capitalism is all about. But I disagree. Where is the Honesty? Where is the concern about screwing the common out of whatever little he/she has?
If you live in America, this is a must read. It would certainly save you a few hundred dollars a year as the book promises
