He could not have as he wrote the book in 1987 www1.dragonet.es A second edition was written in 1994, where he explains how Stanley Drukenmiller became really the hands on manager and Soros started to go off into philanthropy land amazon.com As I said... As he became a philanthropist many of his decisions proved to be flawed. Still I think it is worth a read. I think he has a very unique mind and you can pick and choose what you like... (not that you have to) As for you being an economist... ok I take it back, I did not mean to be mean to you... -ggg ------------------------ btw....

FYI Here is another review on Soros and his theories... wealtheffect.com <snip> Alchemy of Finance This is a marvelous book to give to people who have an exaggerated perception of their own investment talents. By page 10, they will probably feel overwhelmed. It is unquestionably a difficult read, written by a man who views himself more as a philosopher than a money manager. However, if you are willing to make the effort, it will be time well spent. George Soros is that rare commodity: a truly original and brilliant thinker, and one who is self-critical without being falsely humble.
