Unreal Conversations

Total
2 out of 5 stars

Revisado: 07-07-07

This book's promise is to teach you to handle difficult conversations effectively. Unfortunately, it misses it's mark. In the first case the contrived senarios that the author's put together are wholly unrealistic and in some cases downright silly. Their delivery is poorly scripted and emotionless. Secondly the advice provided on how to handle these "difficult" conversations is right of a Sunday school class. While strewn throughout are some good ideas, overall if I had it to do over again I would have left this book on the "shelf".

Wall Street Reality

Total
4 out of 5 stars

Revisado: 07-01-07

This book is very informative and seems to be meant for a novice investor. Levitt gives a good look at the crooked side of "The Street".

At times, he may sound self-rightous and at other times, like when describing the accounting issues surrounding the fall of Enron merely self-exculpatory. All in all, however, he provides the listner with a good introduction into the machinations of Wall Street and the back-channel dealings between it's firms, regulators and Congress. He then methodically illustrates how this affects the investor.

If you are seriously interested learning more about the "imperfections" that exist in the U.S. capital markets this book is a good starting point.
