Cowardly Capitalism - The Myth of the Global Financial Casino (Hardcover)

" Cowardly Capitalism combines an excellent survey of modern finance with the striking idea that our aversion to risk is more dangerous than our love of it. Its message should be taken seriously by everyone with a stake in modern financial markets." - Andrew Freeman, European Business correspondent, The Economist
"Ben-Ami's arguments are controversial and provocative and many bankers, investors, policymakers and business executives won't like them. But they would do well to read it. Whether they agree with Ben-Ami or not, his book will give them much food for thought." - David Fairlamb, Frankfurt correspondent, Business Week
"Understanding risk-takers and risk-taking is essential in a global economy in which economic growth is financed increasingly by capital markets rather than banks. Daniel Ben-Ami helps the reader to better understand the role of the financial markets." - Michael Hughes, Chief Investment Officer, Baring Asset Management
