5.0 out of 5 stars Gripping Insider Account, 23 Feb 2006
By Rolf Dobelli "getAbstract.com" (Switzerland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Den of Thieves (Paperback)
This classic account of insider trading during the greed decade remains as riveting today as the day it was published. Prize-winning journalist James B. Stewart manages to turn an account of the arcane market manipulation that led to the 1987 crash into a page-turner with all the suspense of a detective novel. And while the main villains here - Michael Milken and Ivan Boesky - have faded off the public radar, their philosophical descendants at Enron, Tyco and Adelphia remind investors that greed and market manipulation will never go out of style. Stewart’s richly detailed book is must reading for those who trust their careers or their savings to the markets. We recommend this withering account of over-the-top greed to anyone who works or invests on Wall Street.

4.0 out of 5 stars Greed is good, 24 Nov 2004
By PriyaSoum (UK) - See all my reviews
  
This review is from: Den of Thieves (Hardcover)
Gordon Gekko didnt say so alone. Almost everyone on Wall Street in the boom of the 80s capital and money markets swore by this dictum. Veritable luminaries like Ivan Boesky, Michael Milken and Dennis Levine showed everyone how money begets power and how power corrupts even the most sensible. James Stewart has put together a very impressive narrartive though at times you can easily spot his bias (reason for my 4 stars). I am from the world of finance myself and love books on the same. However, its better when such "reality books" have the narrative style of an action packed thriller. Den of Thieves promises this and does deliver. An excellent addition to anyone's library.

5.0 out of 5 stars Think About It!, 23 Aug 2002
Have you never heard of the arbitragist Ivan Boesky, the king of Junk Bonds Michael Milken, the goldenboy Martin Siegel, and other characters of Wall Street in '80? If not, think to buy this book seriously... a wonderful parodia of the world of investment banking written by a master of financial journalism, James Stewart (Wall Street Journal and Smartmoney.com).
