must be the greatest book ever written on helping people think logically about the economy.
You're likely to have a strong reaction (pro or con) to the politics, but just following the thought process is guaranteed to give you an awful lot of clarity.
From the recommended books page,

Two revealing books:
Maestro about Alan Greenspan, and
In an Uncertain World by former Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin.
