Ben Mezrich - Author Favorite
I just picked up a copy of The Accidental Billionaires by Ben Mezrich which will be my "Book of the Week" next week. Ben Mezrich was born in 1969 and graduated from Harvard University in 1991. I first found out about Ben after reading his NY Times best seller "Bringing Down the House" which was a story about how MIT students figured out how to mathematically win in Black Jack. The book is still one of my favorites despite the fact that I am not really big into gambling and think Vegas is OK.
Since reading Bringing Down the House I have read some of his other titles and highly recommend them all. My two other favorites are Ugly Americans which was about an assistant securities trader and Busting Vegas which was similar to Bringing Down the House but with more advanced gambling techniques.
Ben's writing style puts you in the driver seat of the stories. All of his books are worth reading!
