Harvard University Press has just released Oracles: How Prediction Markets Turn Employees into Visionaries. The book takes a detailed look at not just the science of prediction markets, but at the business application of prediction markets. While making the case that prediction markets are extremely valuable for businesses as a way to tap into the knowledge of their employee bases, the book does an exemplary job of detailing the challenges that companies can face when implementing prediction markets internally. If you or your company is trying to decide if a market is right fo you, this book is a must read.
