  1. Dear Maverick (and others),

    I assume that you recommend the following books for option traders.

    1. Fooled by Randomness

    2. Option Volatility & Pricing: Advanced Trading Strategies and Techniques

    3. The Black Swan (due out April 17)

    Any others?

    Thanks in advance

  6. If you like Taleb you shouldn't miss Mandelbrot, one of Taleb's favorites:
