1 Books are very personal and there is often a view that books on finance are dry and technical. I have however compiled a list below of some books on finance related topics that are, in my view, interesting, sometimes technical, but also enjoyable to read or just a useful source of relevant information in areas that are related to my training activities. I love a good story and also history so many the books I have chosen are, to me at least, interesting because they focus on the working and psychology of markets, business history and people that work in the markets. As the saying goes the truth is often stranger than fiction and in some of the books I have referred to the facts would seem, if they were not facts, works of fantastic fiction. If you read any of the books in the list please consider when the books were written as what happened next or what was happening at the time of publication is very relevant to an assessment of how business conditions and market psychology affect financial returns, company performance and investors attitudes, regulation and financial conduct. In addition to the books on the list below there are of course, many books on companies and prominent business people that provide insight into why businesses and people in business achieve success or perform poorly. I also find it useful to review financial statements and publications of companies that have performed well or experienced financial distress as this provides insight into the characteristics, both strategic and quantitative, of successful and unsuccessful businesses and projects. I hope you enjoy any of the books or publications in the list that you choose to read. If you have some suggestions of your own I d be happy to hear from you. With best wishes Malcolm Sullivan Page 1 of 5
