I used some new software to have this book read to me via TAL, while I lifted weights in my basement. All this technology is disscused in Don’t Like to Read, Then Don’t, Listen!: How to Turn Any Type of Text Into Audio Files That Can Be Read to You!.
Little to no emphasis is place on the role of the fiat money system, changes in money supply on inflation and investments. Look at the DOW in Gold, this does my talking for me. This author thinks he is an elitetist. He must really think his audience is foolish. If you are holding US dollars or equities, you have been getting destroyed. It is not a random walk, look at the charts is there a trend?
Rating: 3 / 5
When Markets Collide reads much like a newspaper. Interesting, but nothing you would read a second time. I generally agree with Mohamed El-Erian’s thinking, but there was not a book’s worth of ideas here.
Rating: 2 / 5
There is no better authority on the modern world of investing than Mohamed El-Erian. El-Erian shares his learned perspective drawn from a career at premier firms including the Harvard Management Company and PIMCO. If you read one book this year on investing, read this one.

George Soros is a very interesting thinker.
It is true (as he more or less admits in his book)
that his philosophical ideas are somewhat “inexact”
by the analytic standards of that profession,
but the insights are real. He gives market equilibrium
theorists a run for their money.
