REPORT


Great Minds in Finance Series editor: Professor Colin Read This series explores the lives and times, theories and applications of those who have contributed most significantly to the formal study of finance. It aims to bring to life the theories that are the foundation of modern finance, by examining them within the context of the historical backdrop and the life stories and characters of the ‘great minds’ behind them. Readers may be those interested in the fundamental underpinnings of our stock and bond markets; college students who want to delve into the significance behind the theories; or experts who constantly look for ways to more clearly understand what they do, so they can better relate to their clients and communities. Titles include: The Life Cyclists The Portfolio Theorists The Rise of the Quants The Efficient Market Hypothesists The Corporate Financiers
