Book Reviews of Monkey Business: Swinging Through the Wall Street Jungle

Book Review: Easy read - funny but grossly exaggerated
Summary: 4 Stars

Maybe an eye-opener for those on the outside but too close to reality for those of us who work on Wall Street 24/7. Elements are exaggerated (especially the whole sexual frustration angle - there are many happily married bankers) but it does take away a lot of the myth surrounding investment banking. An easy read - worth it, provided you don't take it too seriously.
