Thanks for dropping by and asking about "Simplexity". I agree with your summary about the book and thought you did a great job on your review. (Nice website... I'll be back)
For me it was a book that was better NOT to read all at one time -- as you said, it lagged in places. In addition, I though it drifted. The chapter on Micro-banking sort of wandered off topic in my view and while the chapter on the stock market was interesting, I couldn't believe his results because he failed to mention the "trading programs" that most people at the time blamed for the volatility.
Still, food for thought.

Thanks for telling me about your book review site. I really like narrative nonfiction, so I'm subscribing! You might also be interested in these other nonfiction review blogs: Citizen Reader (http://www.citizenreader.com/citizen/) and Welcome to the hinterlands: a narrative nonfiction blog (http://carolinekettlewell.blogs.com/hint...)
Also, here are some great web sites recommending narrative nonfiction. I'm a librarian, and I find these useful.
