This book will not be useful to most readers. Staley touts shorting-hedge-fund managers and similar folk who can hire investigators and who can delegate maniacally-intensive accounting & financials research. This book also suffers from being highly specific in detailing financial irregularities of companies forgotten in light of the stupendous failures of Worldcom, Enron etc. Finally, if you actually want to short securities, don't expect this book to help you.
