Rating: 4.0/5 Stars
Rank: 5764

Very Amusing and Interesting Financial-Entertainment Book
(Buenos Aires, Argentina) July 6, 2005 - 5.0/5 stars

Should be read by anyone interested in the evolution of financial markets especially in the current hedge funds era. Andy writes in a simple, clear and humoristic way. Being simple and clear is not simple. Especially in the financial arena where writers want to sound "encyclopedic" for other reasons rather than being instructive.

I learned about the Industrial Revolution, Intellectual Property, the current era of mental misery, horizontality, augmenting humans and so forth. Worthwhile buying it and not lending it...so good you won't get it back for sure. You may also want to read "Wall St Meat."

5.	Exceptionally good and maybe even important.
	(Omaha, NE USA) October 6, 2004 - 5.0/5 stars
	Kessler's theory of intellectual property/trade deficit/margin surplus really gets one to think. I'd be interested in what others (especially economists and academics) think about this theory. Kessler's dead right about... read full review
