This book was what I was looking for. It's a nice introduction to hedge funds and the industry. The book does an excellent job of providing the information in complete and concise detail. I bought my copy used so I'm even more happy with it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great intro to the stock market

The bonus is that the last 2-3 chapters, which finally get around to looking at Hedge Funds, are really clear and helpful.

Most useful.
