Originally published in 2002, this volume focuses on the growth of derivatives, the savings and loan crisis, the merger mania of the 1980s, the accompanying insider trading scandals, and the battle with inflation.

Rezensionen

'The author's coverage is superb and his analysis uniformly convincing. Markham discusses such topics as derivatives, junk bonds, REITs, hedge funds, and the final bubble meltdown. I rarely turned a page without discovering something I had not known before. Without question, this volume should be the starting point for anyone seeking information on developments in the financial markets over the last three decades.' Edwin J. Perkins, University of Southern California, USA.
