If a mythical Tyler asked you that
question "What have you been reading lately that you learned from?"
what would be your answer?
Here is more, the distinction is between "reading edifying works, rather than works that challenged me and taught," the key is the latter, so answer the question!

I’ve been re-reading Posner’s Economic Analysis of Law — a brilliant work with tonnes of insight.
1. Joel Kotkin- TRIBES, has compositional fallacy problems but still rooted in Weberian style of sociological economics
2. Don Lavoie- CULTURE & ENTERPRISE, though i don’t see economists doing ethnographic fieldwork
3. Brennan & Pettit- THE ECONOMY OF ESTEEM, just started but seems to come from an interesting economist-philosopher pair up
Projected next? Jon Elster’s ULYSSES UNBOUND, its a hit-or-miss and it should be ‘Odyssus’
The Use of Knowledge in Society by Hayek, an absolute classic. I read “Indian Summer” which you had recommended a few months ago and I thoroughly enjoyed it as well.
The Pentagon’s New Map. Interesting take on globalization on the “war on terror.” It was written by a Harvard alum and provides among other things a fascinating look at how policy is shaped inside the Pentagon.

The Book of Judges. Learning more about morality and the nature of God.
“Venus And Mars On A Date” (is that the exact title? Can’t quite remember). The hypothetical verbal exchanges in this book bear an almost eerie resemblance to conversations I’ve had with my delightful girlfriend. Seriously, guys: read it.
Oh, and Dornbusch’s overshooting model. Surprisingly enjoyable, and has given me a hypothesis that I can apply to any counterintuitive situation.
1491 by Charles C. Mann

The Social Misconstruction of Reality, Hamilton
and
Electric Universe, Bodanis
