Booklist

I'm compiling a booklist of "must reads" for developing a philosophical understanding and criticism of economics, markets and trading. At the moment I am half way through E.F. Schumacher's 'Small is Beautiful' and my list is as follows:

The Wealth Of Nations
Against the Gods
The Art of Conjecture
Exposition of a New Theory on the Measurement of Risk
Theory of Games and Economic Behavior
A Random Walk Down Wall Street

Parts of Popper's Conjectures and Refutations and;
The Poverty of Historicism.

Heheheh, the last two will annoy the trend following E Wavers.

I think that is enough for now, but if anyone has any suggestions for additions, then let me know.

I've never read Wealth of Nations but it seems like a good foundation. Have you considered anything by Michael Hudson? I really enjoy his modern perspective of economic ideas.
