Customer Reviews
some case histories would be nice (few hedge funds are cited by name). The book is often fuzzy or uncritical. For example, the industry buzzword "absolute return" is used as shorthand for "hedge funds aim not to lose money" which is then treated as a realized fact and cited as an advantage over mutual funds. Some numbers or a chart would have been preferable. Again, there are many examples like this. Also, diction and grammar are often weak. I found the wikipedia entry on hedge funds to be more useful and faster to read.
