Louis Rukeyser's voice has that hint of smirky erudition that any 1990's era Wall Street Week viewer became accustomed to as he leads the listener confidently through the economic thickets of the '20s, '30s and '40s that Keynes and his fellow economists lived and worked through. Neo-Classical economists came into their own with the increasingly mathematical models of the equilibrium theory developed by Leon Walras [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walras], and simplified by his pupil Vilfredo Pareto [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vilfredo_Pareto].

Rukesyer’s book follows this format, comparing technical and fundamental analysis, although it spends less time on identifying individual stocks. In addition it also offers more general practical advice for stock market investment, on choosing a broker, understanding the difference between a variety of bonds and stocks, and the benefits of mutual funds.
