Reviews'If you have ever wanted to sit down for a candid conversation with a phenomenal financial success, George Soros' book provides the opportunity.You will meet a complex man and a first-rate mind.'
Henry Kissinger
'George Soros brings a lot more to the world of finance than the intuition and nerve of a born trader - and in Soros on Soros he's no longer bashful about telling us about it. A philosopher at heart, George attributes his success at investing to a theory of the interaction of reality and human perception. What really drives the man now, with a personal fortune beyond all personal need, is a different kind of strategic investing - investment to build in Eastern Europe the kind of open societies he came to value in his own life.'
Paul A. Volcker
