Reality Check: Nonfiction Books

Escape from the usual landscape of summer fiction for the excitement of the real world. Consider these new non-fiction books for summer reading: A colorful and unlikely memoir on the underbelly of high-stakes sports betting; a portrait of one of the fastest growing enterprises in a down economy - bilking the working poor. And here's a topic everyone has first-hand experience at...being wrong. A new book says there's a bright side to making mistakes. A checklist might help. Mike McIntyre talks about all that with a few professional book-lovers ...and you Monday, starting at 9am on 90.3.
