  • "L'autobiographie de celui qui a provoqué la banqueroute de la Baring, apprenti sorcier moderne. Un jeune Anglais d'origine modeste se transforme peu à peu en docteur Folamour de l'argent. L'histoire des années folles de la spéculation où l'argent et sa manipulation deviennent si abstraits que l'on ne connaît plus leur signification ni leur valeur."

Rogue Trader takes us from Leeson's humble beginnings as the son of a plasterer to the very heart of the cutthroat empire he made his own: SIMEX, the Singapore money market that witnessed both Leeson's phenomenal rise to prominence and his devastating fall from grace. It is a portrait of organized chaos, revealing not only the frenetic culture of the trading pit, but also the ways in which Leeson dealt with his losses, avoided detection, and became the object of an international manhunt that sparked the most extraordinary news story in recent years."@en
