Description
Originally published in 2002, this volume focuses on the growth of derivatives, the savings and loan crisis, the merger mania of the 1980s, the accompanying insider trading scandals, and the battle with inflation. This history then reviews the market run-up in the 1990s and the rebirth of finance that was being strongly pushed by the Internet economy as the third millennium began.
