A suggestion

In Response To: Products we should carry? (Stanford Wong)

...that will almost certainly be ignored but hey...
I'd like to see Jacques Black's "Spread Betting to win" stocked here, as the best book I've read on sports betting. Until SSB was written nothing remotely in the same league existed.
Black's understanding and analysis of correlations between apparently unconnected markets borders on the paranormal. His intellectual courage in backing up his theories with hard cash is documented in painstaking detail in a case study.
His writing style is clear, and extremely well-written, by far the most euphonius prose I've read from a gambling writer.
Finally the section of betting on presidential and other elections is worth the cover price alone-covering and dismissing the vulgar economy-based Fisk system and developing his own comprehensive linear model of key factors that decide the contest.
