That book was OK, but the later parts (where he talks about CAPM and so forth) are uninformative to anyone who knows about modern mathematical finance.

If you're looking for pop-math/finance books that could change how you look at the world, I'd recomment Taleb's "Fooled by Randomness" instead. Taleb is smug, but he makes an important point: people are way too eager to see patterns where none exist.
