I would agree with some of the other members that there are other worthwhile titles (and a few that I would put some qualifications on), but many were not published this year, so I am not citing them.
I vote for and strongly recommend that all members read: "No Excuses: A Business Process Approach to Managing Operational Risk". It is currently the most thorough book on explaining operational risk and how to manage it in all businesses and industries.
