Has anyone read this book? Currency Wars: The Making of the Next Global Crisis by Jim Rickards. I like these type of finance books, as they play out different fictional scenarios. Anyway, he seems to have a legit background/resume. Bloomberg's review is in the link below. Thoughts? I'm thinking about Kindle-ing it.

It is three deep on my reading list:
Thinking, Fast and Slow (1/3 done) This Time is Different Currency Wars Red Capitalism
Rickards is an extremely intelligent individual and I am expecting good things. If you like anti-neoclassical economists, he is pretty good as he has the finance background and does not write like a douche (Taleb).
I ordered it on amazon yesterday. I discovered Jim Rickards about 2 weeks ago so it's pretty convenient he just released a book. Guy is extremely smart and has a legit background. I posted a thread about him last week but no one seems to have heard of him. There's a speech of his on youtube that is pretty comprehensive and lays out alot of what he prob talks about in the books. Scary stuff.
Jesse Livermore: Let me know how you like Red Capitalism. I heard good things.
Jeff Skilling: I think that this is the talk you mentioned. I caught some clips from it - seems really interesting. I'll check out the whole thing later. 42 mins.
