Zweig's book "skewers the plutocrats and bureaucrats who gave us exploding mortgages, freakish risks, and banks too big to fail. And it distills the complexities, absurdities, and pomposities of Wall Street into plain truths and aphorisms anyone can understand. [A] ... survival guide to the hostile wilderness of today's financial markets, [this book] delivers practical insights with a scorpion's sting"--
