by John Lanchester (Author)

To those who don't speak it, the language of money can seem impenetrable. Fortunately, John Lanchester--the best-selling novelist and reporter hailed by The Economist for "explain ing] complex stuff in a down-to-earth and witty style"--is here to bridge the gap between the money people and the rest of us. With wit and candor, Lanchester explains more than 300 common words and phrases from "AAA rating" and "amortization" to "yield curve" and "zombie bank."
