...so you'll have to elaborate, because I hated the fuck out of Persig, because he knows fuckall about zen and fuckall about motorcycle maintenance. That part where he runs out of gas on the side of the road? And then discovers his backup tank? I mean, FFS. The thing of it is, there are plenty of easy-to-digest non-fiction books about finance and economics. It's actually a lot less complicated than it's made out to be - I mean, this is the industry that Business majors go into. And I could probably give you notes and recommendations on a couple dozen of them. Cryptonomicon would not be one of my recommendations.
