From Wall Street to Main Street, John Brooks, longtime contributor to the New Yorker, brings to life in vivid fashion twelve classic and timeless tales of corporate and financial life in America

What do the $350 million Ford Motor Company disaster known as the Edsel, the fast and incredible rise of Xerox, and the unbelievable scandals at GE and Texas Gulf Sulphur have in common? Each is an example of how an iconic company was defined by a particular moment of fame or notoriety; these notable and fascinating accounts are as relevant today to understanding the intricacies of corporate life as they were when the events happened.

Stories about Wall Street are infused with drama and adventure and reveal the machinations and volatile nature of the world of finance. John Brooks’s insightful reportage is so full of personality and critical detail that whether he is looking at the astounding market crash of 1962, the collapse of a well-known brokerage firm, or the bold attempt by American bankers to save the British pound, one gets the sense that history repeats itself.

Five additional stories on equally fascinating subjects round out this wonderful collection that will both entertain and inform readers . . . Business Adventures is truly financial journalism at its liveliest and best.

金融曆史?好無聊

商業寫作的另一條路,或教科書。

12個小故事,看清楚商業社會,不僅僅business,還有法律條款等等,文筆很清晰。one free bite很令人思考,尤其是法官釋法再到如果涉及國外公司又當如何呢?

评分

讀起來纔發現是一本很古老的書,大概都是50,60年代金融有關的舊事,不過還是很有意思,尤其是英鎊保衛戰,很驚心動魄
