The money culture

While Michael Lewis worked as a bond dealer at Salomon Brothers he began his second career as a journalist and helped to record a real-life "bonfire of the vanities". Not afraid of interviewing the world's most notorious financiers or of revealing the treachery and deception behind some of the biggest financial deals ever made, the author provides a contemporary record of the ups and downs of the world's money markets and of the rise and fall of some of the larger-than-life personalities. The author has had articles in many periodicals including "Spectator", "Business", "You" magazine, the "New Republic" and "The Economist" and is the author of "Liar's Poker".
