Welcome as well. I'm very interested to see what kind of discussion CM generates. I haven't read it since college and was flipping through my college copy and noticed I have it all marked up and highlighted. I'll be curious to see how my thoughts now compare to my thoughts then.

We still have a little over a week of Marx left to go, but it's time to think about Book #4 to begin on August 21st so folks can order books as necessary.

The plan is to knock out one of the non-economics books on our list before switching to something more on the "fiscal left" for Book #5. For Book #5, I suggest something from the Keynesian camp. Be thinking about that as we have nothing on our reading list currently to choose from.

For Book #4, we have things such as Naked Statistics, The Intelligent Investor, The Smartest Guys in the Room, Lords of Finance, and Thinking Fast and Slow to choose from.

I'll make the selection for Book #4 by Saturday evening, either by majority vote (if we have any) or fiat (if we don't). Please also be thinking about a proper selection for Book #5 from the Keynesians.
