W. W. Norton & Company, New York, 1997. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. F.I.A.S.C.O. is an insider's diary, a shocking education in the jungle of high finance in the 1990s from New York to Tokyo. It tracks the progress of a young Morgan Stanley salesman as he learns the ropes of this sophisticated jungle, where billions of dollars are lost in the creation and trading of securities so unlikely and so complicated that almost nobody - certainly not the unwary or undereducated buyer - understands them. And some of that money, whether you know it or not, may be yours. Frank Partnoy's journey is partly comical, and full of incredible characters, but what he learns should stir fear in anyone who owns mutual funds, stocks, or even insurance. Partnoy's colleagues sharpen their killer instincts at an annual drunken skeet-shooting competition called F.I.A.S.C.O., the Fixed Income Annual Sporting Clays Outing. Against well-trained derivatives salesmen, buyers… Read More

Melbourne University Press, Australia, 1996. Softcover. Very Good Condition. Pat Jarrett became a household name in Melbourne in the fifties and sixties as editor of the women's pages of the daily Sun News Pictorial. Yet it was a role she took on reluctantly. She had no time for the 'piddling social stuff' that dominated the work of the old 'butterfly department' at the Sun. Under her guidance, endless lists of who was who at the latest high-society function steadily gave way to articles on issues affecting women's everyday lives. Contraception, abortion, equal pay. Women's Liberation - all found space in Pat's pages, where they were addressed with her characteristic blend of forthrightness and humour. 188 pages. Quantity Available: 1.
