<p>Ben Mezrich, author of the <em>New York Times</em> bestseller <em>Bringing Down the House</em>, returns with an astonishing story of Ivy League hedge-fund cowboys, high stakes, and the Asian underworld.</p><p>John Malcolm was the ultimate gunslinger in the Wild East, prepared to take on any level of risk in making mind-boggling sums of money. He and his friends were hedge-fund cowboys, living life on the adrenaline-, sex-, and drugs-fueled edge--kids running billion-dollar portfolios, trading information in the back rooms of high-class brothels and at VIP tables in nightclubs across the Far East.</p><p>Malcolm and his Ivy League-schooled twenty-something colleagues, with their warped sense of morality, created their own economic theory that would culminate in a single deal the likes of which had never been seen before--or since.</p><p><em>Ugly Americans</em> is a story of extremes, charged with wealth, nerve, excess, and glamour. A real-life mixture of <em>Liar's Poker</em> and <em>Wall Street</em>, brimming with intense action, romance, underground sex, vivid locales, and exotic characters, <em>Ugly Americans</em> is the untold true story that rocked the financial community.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Ben Mezrich<br><b>Publisher:</b> William Morrow & Company<br><b>Published:</b> 04/26/2005<br><b>Pages:</b> 288<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.49lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.10h x 5.32w x 0.72d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780060575014<p></p>
