Distilled economics
I love this book - it's a series of potentially heavy-going economic observations, packaged into a more accessible format. Jim Grant certainly has a talent, like Krugman and Roubini, for expressing complex ideas to the (comparative)layman. A must-read for finance professionals and students alike.

If you can't afford the $900 or so that an annual subscription costs, why not do the next best thing and read this best-of compilation of Grant's Interest Observer. See James Grant fulminate on the last two bubbles and Alan Greenspan, and eventually be proved right. Learn some fundamental analysis and contrarian thinking in the mean time. Maybe lose less money in the next bubble. One star knocked off for not reproducing graphs mentioned in the text.
