Liars Poker From the author of

Michael Lewis' bestselling tale of greed and corruption is repackaged as a Great Read for a broad new readership. From mere trainee to lowly geek, to triumphal Big Swinging Dick: that was Michael Lewis' pell-mell progress through the dealing rooms of Salomon Brothers in New York and London during the heady mid-1980s when they were probably the world's most powerful and profitable merchant bank. A true-life Bonfire of the Vanities, funny, frightening, breathless and heartless, his is a tale of hysterical greed and ambition set in an obsessed, enclosed world. 'The funniest book about Wall Street I have ever read' (Tom Wolfe)
