The Wisdom of Crowds, James Surowiecki

Once again I read these books well after they come out, like Freakonomics and Tipping Point. But I am glad I picked this one up. It is a great read on how the collective wisdom is often much better than the singular. I am now obsessed with decision markets and the use of a stock market/gambling application can be used to predict the future with uncanny accuracy.

Buy it from amazon.com
