On Backbone Radio earlier this evening, I mentioned some further reading for those interested. Here they are:
I, Pencil, which explains why all of us are smarter than any of us.
Thomas Sowell's Basic Economics, written for the layman by one of the best. I promise: no equations, no graphs, no complex tables.
And the Carnival of the Capitalists. The best of each week's economics and business blogging; find some blogs that appeal to you, on topics you like, and keep going back.
