Review

"Overall, the book is a welcome reflection of the maturity of the hedge fund industry. It is very much a reference book, and different chapters will be of interest to different people. But perhaps its greatest virtue is its diversity." David Mengle, Rutter Associates, Risk, 2001 "Risk management may be a tough topic to swallow, but taken a morsel at a time 'Managing Hedge Fund Risk: From the Practitioner's Perspective,' is well worth the effort." Susan L. Barreto, Senior Reporter, Hedge World
