The Confidence Game: Why We Fall for It . . . Every Time by Maria Konnikova
A well-written mix of history, analysis and philosophy.
I enjoyed this book for a number of reasons. There was, I thought, an engaging mix of history, analysis and philosophy. There are numerous academic and scientific citations suggesting a credible amount of research underlying the text. But the style isn't high-minded. And the lessons, if you will, aren't presented in a preachy tone.
