Book Synopsis When Genius Failed by : Roger Lowenstein
Download or read book When Genius Failed written by Roger Lowenstein. This book was released on 2001-10-09. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A riveting account that reaches beyond the market landscape to say something universal about risk and triumph, about hubris and failure.”—The New York Times NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BUSINESSWEEK In this business classic—now with a new Afterword in which the author draws parallels to the recent financial crisis—Roger Lowenstein captures the gripping roller-coaster ride of Long-Term Capital Management. Drawing on confidential internal memos and interviews with dozens of key players, Lowenstein explains not just how the fund made and lost its money but also how the personalities of Long-Term’s partners, the arrogance of their mathematical certainties, and the culture of Wall Street itself contributed to both their rise and their fall. When it was founded in 1993, Long-Term was hailed as the most impressive hedge fund in history. But after four years in which the firm dazzled Wall Street as a $100 billion moneymaking juggernaut, it suddenly suffered catastrophic losses that jeopardized not only the biggest banks on Wall Street but the stability of the financial system itself. The dramatic story of Long-Term’s fall is now a chilling harbinger of the crisis that would strike all of Wall Street, from Lehman Brothers to AIG, a decade later. In his new Afterword, Lowenstein shows that LTCM’s implosion should be seen not as a one-off drama but as a template for market meltdowns in an age of instability—and as a wake-up call that Wall Street and government alike tragically ignored. Praise for When Genius Failed “[Roger] Lowenstein has written a squalid and fascinating tale of world-class greed and, above all, hubris.”—BusinessWeek “Compelling . . . The fund was long cloaked in secrecy, making the story of its rise . . . and its ultimate destruction that much more fascinating.”—The Washington Post “Story-telling journalism at its best.”—The Economist

Book Synopsis Trumpula by : Greg Mandel
Download or read book Trumpula written by Greg Mandel. This book was released on 2017-09-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trumpula is a modern reimagining of the Dracula tale. The story follows the dark history of Count Trumpula, a bloodthirsty four-hundred-year-old swirly-haired orange-skinned vampire just elected president of the US, and the small band of heroes determined to stop him and his army of minions from destroying the world. Told in epistolary style, like Bram Stokers original novel, the tale unfolds in a series of emails, journal entries, news articles, and of course, tweets. Interspersed throughout are Trumpulas first-person musings as he recounts his amazing history through the centuries, telling his version of many bigly eventsfrom the late seventeenth century when a shirtless Russian vampire named Vladimir Poutine got him started in the vampire business, to the French Revolution, the Alamo, the Titanic, and more, including encounters with a whole host of historic figures from Pocahontas to Hitler to the Lindbergh baby and many more. Part political satire, part horror classic, Trumpula is bound to make vampires great again.
