Favorite books about wall street

[Stefan Zota]

When it comes to books about Wall Street, I think one of the best (and my favorite) is "When Genius Failed" by Roger Lowenstein. WGF is a nice expose on the rise and fall of Long Term Capital Management.

Other receiving honorable mention are Liar's Poker, The Predators' Ball, Den of Thieves, last but not least, Barbarians at the Gate.

I enjoyed "When Genius Failed" as well. A nice book about hedge-fund managers is "Hedgehogs" - Barton Biggs. It is full of stories about lives of managers, it goes into their character, anxieties, flaws, strenghts etc.
