@rachelmetz @AP Taking "totally obsessed with understanding" literally I'd recommend:
- All the Devils Are Here (McLean/Nocera)
- Slapped by the Invisible Hand (Gorton)
- Diary of a Very Bad Year (n+1)
Also Sorkin's and Geithner's books & maybe Friedman & Kraus "Engineering the Financial Crisis" – source
