Guide to Financial Markets by The Economist
The revised and updated 7th edition of this highly regarded book brings the reader right up to speed with the latest financial market developments, and provides a clear and incisive guide to a complex world that even those who work in it often find hard to understand. In chapters on the markets that deal with money, foreign exchange, equities, bonds, commodities, financial futures, options and other derivatives, the book examines why these markets exist, how they work, and who trades in them, and gives a run-down of the factors that affect prices and rates. Business history is littered with disasters that occurred because people involved their firms with financial instruments they didn't properly understand. If they had had this book they might have avoided their mistakes. For anyone wishing to understand financial markets, there is no better guide.

He is a regular contributor to the Financial Times in London, La Stampa in Italy, Nikkei Business in Japan, and for Project Syndicate worldwide. He is a trustee of the International Institute for Strategic Studies, a Visiting Professor at Shujitsu University, and global economic adviser for Stonehenge Fleming Family & Partners. He is the author of several books, including 20:21 Vision, Rivals, and Good Italy, Bad Italy. He is also the narrator and co-author, with Annalisa Piras, of a documentary about Italy, Girlfriend in a Coma. In 2015, he produced The Great European Disaster Movie, which has now been seen by 2,500,000 people in twelve countries and translated into ten languages.
