Dinosaur Derivatives and Other Trades - Jeremy Josse (Finance, Investments, Securities, Markets)

A STUDY IN FINANCIAL FANTASY, ENIGMA AND PHILOSOPHY

Written in an engaging and accessible style, Dinosaur Derivatives and Other Trades reveals the inherent philosophical paradoxes found in the world of finance. Jeremy Josse examines a variety of basic concepts to offer a financial expert's view into the often contradictory maze of money.

Each topic in the book is introduced through a striking tale that highlights specific hypocrisies or moral dilemmas that lie at the heart of the financial system. The stories, however odd or enigmatic, offer a unique perspective on what's going on "inside" the world of finance itself.

Finance is a living and breathing subject that we all contend with in our daily lives. With expertise and a good dose of wit, Josse explores a range of compelling questions such as: what is value? what is risk/uncertainty? what is financial innovation? And what is money?
