Very good condition with only minor signs of external wear. Michael Monroe Lewis (born October 15, 1960) is an American non-fiction author and financial journalist. His bestselling books include Liar s Poker (1989), The New New Thing (2000), Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game (2003), The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game (2006), Panic (2008), Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood (2009), The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine (2010), and Boomerang: Travels in the New Third World (2011). He has also been a contributing editor to Vanity Fair since 2009. His most recent book, Flash Boys, which looked at the high-frequency trading sector of Wall Street, was released in 2014. Lewis described his experiences at Salomon and the evolution of the mortgage-backed bond in Liar s Poker (1989). In The New New Thing (1999), he investigated the then-booming Silicon Valley and discussed obsession with innovation. Four years later, Lewis wrote Moneyball, in which he investigated the success of Billy Beane and the Oakland A s. In August 2007, he wrote an article about catastrophe bonds entitled In Nature s Casino that appeared in The New York Times Magazine. In a 2011 column in The Atlantic, American journalist and sports author Allen Barra takes issue with Lewis s characterization of Major League Baseball in his 2003 book Moneyball. Barra writes: From a historical standpoint, Lewis is, well, way off base. By the end of the 20th century baseball had achieved a greater level of competitive balance than at any time in the game s history... Moneyball doesn t just get the state of present-day baseball wrong; it also misrepresents the history of the sport. (Wikipedia).
