To me he is right up there with Tracy Kidder in terms of the great non-fiction writers of our time. The Big Short is outstanding. For you kids out there looking for something old that is suddenly new, pick up a copy of Kidder’s “Soul of a New Machine” – all that one did is win the Pulitzer Prize for non-fiction, and it is pure geek porn all the way.
