In 1983 the author of this book was an influential stock-market columnist on "The Wall Street Journal" through his column "Heard on the Street". He was approached by a stockbroker, Peter Brant, who suggested paying him for advance information on the stocks mentioned in the columns in order to exploit the influence of the column on stock market prices. This is Foster Winans' personal account of a notorious insider trading scandal for which he is now in jail and for which Peter Brant has been barred from the stockbroking business.
