Market Wizards
Market Wizards is one of the most insightful, best-selling trading guides of all time. It demonstrates how the world's top traders differ from the vast majority of unsuccessful investors. This iconic financial classic sets out the interviews with superstar money-makers including Bruce Kovner, Richard Dennis, Paul Tudor Jones, Michel Steinhardt, Ed Seykota, Marty Schwartz, Tom Baldwin, and many more. This interview-style handbook is a must-have for traders and professional financiers alike, as well as anyone interested in gaining insight into how the world of finance really works.
"I've read Market Wizards at several stages of my career as it shows the staying power of good down-to-earth wisdoms of true practitioners with skin in the game. This is the central document showing the heuristics that real-life traders use to manage their affairs, how people who do rather than talk have done things. Twenty years from now, it will still be fresh. There is no other like it."

"Market Wizards is one of the most fascinating books ever written about Wall Street. A few of the 'Wizards' are my friends?and Jack Schwager has nailed their modus operandi on the head."

"It is difficult enough to develop a method that works. It then takes experience to believe what your method is telling you. But the toughest task of all is turning analysis into money. If you don't believe it, try it. These guys have it all: a method, the conviction, and the discipline to act decisively time after time, regardless of distractions and pressures. They are heroes of Wall Street, and Jack Schwager's book brings their characters vividly to life."
