Twelve long pieces written for the New Yorker in the 1960s, each on a moment when a company or a market did something revealing.
The Ford Edsel, a car nobody wanted and everybody had researched; the rise of Xerox; the Texas Gulf Sulphur insider-trading scandal; a stock-market flash crash; and a price-fixing case at General Electric in which nobody could say who had authorised anything. Warren Buffett lent his copy to Bill Gates and never got it back.
First published 1969
