I've heard so many people talk about Lies My Teacher Told me! I really want to read "Crying in H Mart" which is the memoir by the singer of Japanese Breakfast.
I read it. It was incredibly touching and I enjoyed it a lot.
Financial history books. It's amazing how often you can learn from them that our elegant economic theories almost never really form the basis for our current economic structures, which instead arise out of some necessity (and a choice) made in the past.
Had an old law professor one tell me: "an ounce of history is worth a pound of theory."
I'm really just starting to get into it:
But Secrets of the Temple by Greider was sobering and depressing.
Fragile by Design.
The Ascent of Money
Barbarians at the Gate (I lived in the part of North Carolina where the RJ Reynolds tobacco business was located and it was amazing to me how important a set of Winston-Salem born companies were to the history of M&A law and finance)
Princes of the Yen (reading this now)
I've got a couple more on my bookshelves (Price of Time, Tower of Basel), just haven't gotten to them yet
Lies My Teacher Told Me would be more accurately entitled Lies James Loewen Told Me. In college, I took a course called Historian’s Craft and one of the assignments we were given was to look through the book and find some gross error he had made. The most difficult part of the assignment was choosing from the embarrassment of riches.
What are some examples of gross errors from the book?
What about that book "I'm glad my mom died" by Jeanette McCurdy, has anyone read that one?
