Terrance Odean had done a phenomenal amount of work in the field of behavioural finance, and apparently Daniel Kahneman, the man who won a Nobel for his work on the subject believes he will be a future winner of that prize.
I read and watched his talk on various studies on various investment foibles which was both entertaining and interesting.
A number of his papers can be found here.
I couldn't find any books that he had written, but he is quoted in a number, which I guess suggests he spends more time on his research papers.
Anyway, it was a pleasant change to listen to an academic who is an entertaining speaker.

I'm fimilar with the work Kahneman and Tversky have done, brilliant however there is still more which can be built on that. I have come across Odean studies in reflection on prospect theory. These men and others have picked up on a sector which has often been overlooked but is very important when we look upon performance and the reasons there of. I am going to look about for Odean's video would be keen to hear what he has to share.
