The Spider Network book cover
The Spider Network
The Wild Story of a Math Genius, a Gang of Backstabbing Bankers, and One of the Greatest Scams in Financial History
David Enrich - 2017-03-21
Рейтинг Goodreads
This book tells the story of a group of bankers who discovered they could manipulate the London interbank offered rate to make profits on loans worldwide. The group included a cast of oddball characters, including a French trader nicknamed "Gollum" and a nervous Kazakh chicken farmer known as "Derka Derka." Their scheme generated colossal riches until it all fell apart in spectacularly vicious, backstabbing fashion. This book provides an exclusive look into the scandal and a deeper examination of a crooked financial system.

Alchemy is a revolutionary book that decodes human behavior, blending leading-edge scientific research, storytelling, and practical case studies from Ogilvy advertising legend Rory Sutherland's storied career working on campaigns for AmEx, Microsoft, and others. Sutherland combines deep psychological insights with absurdly entertaining storytelling to teach readers the dark art and curious science of conjuring irresistible ideas.

Reading the Iacocca autobio at age 21, was absolutely transformational. Taught me more than an MBA degree. The second book that did something similar at that age for me, was "The Mind of The Strategist" by Kenichi Ohmae. Such great business wisdom in these books. RIP Lee      источник
