Review: Michael Lewis is a great teacher - ML reminded me of one of my erstwhile bosses who time and again repeated various technical presentations to the same customers and to me. I haven’t figured out ever whether he (my boss) knew that the customers needed to be regularly reminded of the complexity and criticality of their own decision making process or whether (my boss) simply forgot that he had made the presentation earlier. I like to believe it was the former. Without Michael Lewis explaining the same concepts several times in various fashion at different junctures in the 30 year period that book covers the reader would easily look track of the complicated financial instruments and concepts. I had watched the Big Short movie a couple of times earlier but I watched it again yesterday after I read the book. This time, finally, I could understand the story well!
Review: Worth reading on Credit Crisis but poor copy by desertcart - The book is really good if you want a decent book to understand the credit crisis of 2008. The writing style of M Lewis is quite catchy and takes you on a storyline that is both captivating and lucid. However, the copy of the book received from desertcart was soiled and seemed like an old copy. I would suggest to buy the book from somewhere other than desertcart.
