Summer 2011 Reading List

....AND yet another academic year's over! Summer 2011 is going to be awesome and I'm really looking forward to my 9-week-long Equity Research internship! Hopefully I'll be able to squeeze in a few hours of reading (and sleep) while commuting. Once the internship's over, I plan to devote the remaining month to relaxing, travelling and reading!

As per last year, I picked out a few books that look interesting from dad's list and from my own personal selection(in no particular order):

1. 'The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable)' - Nassim Nicholas Taleb

2. 'Security Analysis' - Graham and Dodd

3. 'Too Big to Fail' - Andrew Ross Sorkin

4. 'Outliers' - Malcolm Gladwell

5. 'Freefall: America, Free Markets and the Sinking of the World Economy' - Joseph Stiglitz
