A fantastic book and it should be required reading for anyone who wishes to understand OWS.
Find it at Amazon, here:
http://www.amazon.com/Big-Crackpot-Economics-Fleecing-America/dp/B003IWYL4S/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpt_1
I recommend also EConned by Yves Smith: http://www.amazon.com/ECONned-Unenlightened-Undermined-Democracy-Capitalism/dp/0230620515/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1263949691&sr=8-1
She maintains a NakedCapitalism blog: http://www.nakedcapitalism.com that has had good ongoing coverage of the subprime crisis and the failure of banks to really meet their obligations, or obey the laws.
