"THE REVENGE OF THE BOND TRADERS"
http://my.brandeis.edu/news/item?news_item_id=103501&show_release_date=1
Remember, the bond traders were the ones who forced Bill Clinton to scale back his ambitious plan
for public investments in education and health care. They even turned Clinton into a deficit hawk.
I saw it with my own eyes. The same bond traders may force George Bush to back down on his plans,
too.

Q
"Liar's Poker"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liar's_Poker
Liar's Poker follows two different story threads, though not necessarily in chronological order.
The first thread is autobiographical, and follows Lewis through his college education and his hiring by Salomon Brothers in 1986. This part of the book gives a first-person account of how bond traders and salesmen truly work, their personalities, and their culture.
The second thread is a sort of history of Salomon Brothers and overview of Wall Street in general, especially how the firm single-handedly created a market for mortgage bonds and made the firm wealthy, only to be outdone by Michael Milken and his junk bonds.
