William Poundstone is one of Web Watch’s favorite writers, having written many books around the same theme of exposing various ways that professionals (magicians, street crooks, carnies, casinos, etc) lie, cheat, and steal their way into your wallet.
Some of Mr Poundstone’s books that you may already be aware of include:
- Big Secrets
- Bigger Secrets: More than 125 Things They Prayed You’d Never Find Out
- Fortune’s Formula: The Untold Story of the Scientific Betting System that Beat the Casinos and Wall Street
All are great reads and lots of fun.
And now Mr Poundstone adds to his roster with PRICELESS – THE MYTH OF FAIR VALUE AND HOW TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT.
