Michael Lewis, the best-selling author of Liar's Poker, The Money Culture, The New New Thing, Moneyball, The Blind Side, Panic, Home Game, The Big Short, and Boomerang, among other works, lives in Berkeley, California, with his wife and three children.
The #1 New York Times bestseller: "It is the work of our greatest financial journalist, at the top of his game. And it's essential reading."―Graydon Carter, Vanity Fair
The real story of the crash began in bizarre feeder markets where the sun doesn't shine and the SEC doesn't dare, or bother, to tread: the bond and real estate derivative markets where geeks invent impenetrable securities to profit from the misery of lower- and middle-class Americans who can't pay their debts. The smart people who understood what was or might be happening were paralyzed by hope and fear; in any case, they weren't talking.
Michael Lewis creates a fresh, character-driven narrative brimming with indignation and dark humor, a fitting sequel to his #1 bestseller Liar's Poker. Out of a handful of unlikely-really unlikely-heroes, Lewis fashions a story as compelling and unusual as any of his earlier bestsellers, proving yet again that he is the finest and funniest chronicler of our time.

金融術語就不再贅述,想當年我還翻譯過雷曼關於CDO和閤成CDO的文章,賺些零花錢,現在想來恍如隔世。還是先說說書中我最欽佩的牛掰人物,邁剋爾.巴裏。 他最精彩的發言如下:市場上基金經理評估風險的方法非常愚蠢。他們用波動幅度來評估風險。即過去幾年間,一隻股票或者債券...
評分老師推薦的課外讀物《The Big Short》(中文譯名大空頭),英文原著(2010 by Michael Lewis)和中文譯本(何正雲翻譯的)都讀瞭,對應的電影(亞當·麥凱在2015執導的)也看瞭。很有意思,強烈推薦。書中講述瞭四路華爾街的人馬在2008年次貸危機前,靠自己對住房次貸市場與經...

評分Michael Lewis走過的職業道路是我的夢想。從普林斯頓藝術史專業本科畢業後,他到紐約工作,很快被華爾街的浮華所迷醉,想盡辦法希望進入投資銀行業,未遂。無奈下他隻能先到倫敦政治經濟學院(LSE)攻讀經濟學碩士。在一次女王母親主持的招待會上,他“碰巧”坐在兩位所羅門兄弟(...

有利可圖且不用承擔責任的時候,人還是很擅長自欺欺人的
評分I read it after attending the tech summit. Company invited Michael Lewis to the stage and did a short interview with him and he is a great story teller, I am impressed by his speech. This book is not as easy as Flash Boys. But it's good to know how cruel the finance world is and how smart people does in face of the crisis.
評分毫無金融知識的我讀著有點費勁,到底也沒看明白是怎麼做空的。不是作者書寫的不好,是我太笨。

評分沒有金融背景也能讀懂2008金融危機的書。Michael Burry的故事告訴我們,“舉世皆濁我獨清,眾人皆醉我獨醒”需要的不僅僅是勇氣,還有智慧和運氣。
