Klappentext zu „Wealth, War and Wisdom “
Der zweite Weltkrieg war verheerender Höhepunkt in der Geschichte, der aus Sicht des Autors fast die westliche Zivilisation gekostet hat. Biggs beschäftigt sich in seinem Buch daher mit der Frage, wie es Menschen in solchen Extremzeiten gelingen kann ihr Kapital zu sicher. Er analysiert dazu das Investitionsverhalten der Anleger von 1930-1945, und zwar sowohl auf Seiten der Sieger als auch auf Seiten der Besiegten. So stellt er beispielweise fest dass Grundeigentümer ihren Reichtum stärker schützten, als die Menschen die ihr Geld in Aktien angelegt hatten. Interessant ist vor allem, dass sich die Lehren aus dem Krieg direkt auf die heutigen turbulenten Märkte anwenden lässt.

Autoren-Porträt von Barton Biggs
Barton Biggs spent thirty years at Morgan Stanley. In that time, he formed the firm's number one- ranked research department, built up its investment management business, and served as chairman of the investment management firm. At various times during this period, he was ranked as the number-one U.S. investment strategist by the Institutional Investor magazine poll and then, from 1996 to 2003, as the number-one global strategist. He was also a member of the five-man executive committee that ran the firm until its merger with Dean Witter in 1996. In 2003, Biggs left Morgan Stanley and, with two other colleagues, formed Traxis Partners. Traxis now has well over a billion dollars under its management. Biggs's previous book, Hedgehogging, was also published by Wiley and is an international success.

Rezension zu „Wealth, War and Wisdom “
"'Wealth, War & Wisdom' fills a void...Biggs has read widely and thought deeply." (bloomberg.com)"air of scholarly detachment and his lucid prose make [the book] worthy as both an economic primer and history seminar." (Trader Monthly, March 2008)
