The Most Spectacular Financial Collapse in History — Told from the Inside
In 1994, a group of the world's most brilliant minds — Nobel Prize-winning economists, legendary bond traders, and Wall Street's elite — launched a hedge fund called Long-Term Capital Management. Their models were flawless. Their track record was extraordinary. Their confidence was absolute.
Four years later, they nearly brought down the global financial system.
When Genius Failed by Roger Lowenstein is the definitive account of LTCM's breathtaking rise and catastrophic collapse — a National Bestseller that reads like a financial thriller and delivers lessons that are more relevant today than ever.
