4 out of 5 stars A good insight into financial markets   December 29, 2007
S. Moran (London, UK)
6 out of 10 found this review helpful

Quite an interesting book with numerous anecdotes and a lot of historical information in there. It provides an interesting insight into the late 80's and the 90's financial markets from the perspective of someone who was obviously high up in the organisation and would have seen what was going on.

The book does seem to focus very much on the author's time at Morgan Stanley and Salomon/Citi though, with only a small amount of information on his time at Moore or Ziff Brothers which I would have liked to have seen more information on.

Definitely worth reading but don't expect it to be another FIASCO or Liars Poker with lots of stories about greedy traders and salespeople.
