2. The Money Game
A witty, skeptical look at the stock market that treats investing as a social and psychological game rather than a purely mathematical pursuit, profiling the characters, advisers and institutions that shape market behavior and exposing the herd instincts, fads and self-deceptions that drive booms and busts; blending anecdotes, critique of market pundits and clear explanations of speculation versus investment, the book shows how prices reflect human moods, rumor and strategy as much as corporate fundamentals and offers practical, humorous insight into surviving and thinking clearly in a world of financial noise.
