'The Game is a brilliant and timely expose of what happens behind the closed doors of the City of London. It's a must-have for anyone with a curiosity as to what makes high finance tick.' --David Charters; 'The Game ... is a breath of fresh air ... I haven't read any book on the city that has told me as much about what happens there on a day to day basis, answering questions that others have derided as being beneath them ... The Game's strength lies in its ability to take the reader into the arcane and frenetic world of the trading floor.' --Richard Gillis - The Irish Times --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
