About this listen

Wealthy, powerful and potentially dangerous, hedge fund managers have emerged as the stars of twenty-first-century capitalism. Based on unprecedented access to the industry, More Money Than God provides the first authoritative history of hedge funds.

Drawing on insights from mathematics, economics and psychology to crack the mysteries of the market, hedge funds have transformed the world, spawning new markets in exotic financial instruments and rewriting the rules of capitalism.
