A MILLION A MINUTE

A successful, female British broker provides a refreshingly concise tour of something that confounds many of us--the stock market. Most of us could know a little more about liquidity, block trading, junk bonds, and risk arbitration. Nadia May offers a brisk and vivacious interpretation of a book that needs just a little of the sparkle she provides. The British narrator seems to be the author herself talking. Personal anecdotes and actual situations add plot and tension and women will enjoy the chapter on Muriel Siebert, the first woman to penetrate the man's world of Wall Street.
