The Money Game

First published in 1968, translated into 30 languages, and hailed by Nobel Prize winning economist Paul Samuelson as "a modern classic", this extraordinary piece of New Journalism about the go-go years of Wall Street in the 1960s is, in the words of its true author, George Goodman, "a book about image and reality and identity and anxiety and money." As timely and relevant to investors today as it was to those of the Vietnam era, it contains lucid insights into everything from technical analysis and efficient market theory to Random Walks, crowd psychology, and what precipitates a market meltdown.
