Odysseus und die Wiesel

Whether skepticism or excitement arises when it comes to financial markets, this book caters to both. As a fund manager, Georg von Wallwitz is an insider. As a mathematician and philosopher, he takes a calm look at his world, which reflects its time: he explains why financial markets have become what they are – dangerous, yet highly entertaining. He vividly describes complex matters and paints character sketches of financial players, in which one can recognize not only those with enormous bonus payments but, hopefully in the end, also oneself. Nothing is missing: Keynes and classical theory, the glories and miseries of the financial floor, boring stocks, exciting bonds, rogue hedge funds, and much more that delights the heart and stimulates the mind.
