Good reading for a long flight??


DaveinJapan said: "Okay, I'm about to fly from Tokyo to Newark and back again... Total airtime more than a full DAY (ugh) with no stops along the way. So, if you were to recommend just ONE book that is a must read for someone stuck on a deserted island for a day, what would it be? If it needs to be narrowed down, I'll say that I'm more interested in a "traders" book as compared to an "investors" book...and that I'm looking for something with substance (of course) but NOT something that is so dry and pedantic that I'll get bored and stick it in the seat pocket after 2 chapters and turn to the inflight entertainment for comfort. :)"

Jesse Livermore: World's Greatest Stock Trader Richest Man in Babylon (will take 2-3 hours MAX to read ... but very, VERY WORTH IT!) ...just to name a few that might be worth looking at."
