Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. First Edition, First Printing. Deep purple textured cloth with stamped gilt titles; The bindings are tight and square. Text is clean; light, even age-toning. Moderate shelf handling wear, minor spine fade with one tiny open spot on the lower front spine edge.

Charles Frasca delves into the unethical and fraudulent practices used by stock swindlers to deceive investors and manipulate financial markets. While it is not as widely known as some other books on financial fraud, its significance lies in its detailed analysis of the psychological and technical strategies used by swindlers to exploit investors' trust and greed. Here are some key points about the book's significance. For those interested in financial markets and the history of stock market fraud, the book serves as a useful guide in understanding how these deceptive practices have evolved and the warning signs to watch out for.
