Personally, I felt as if he was holding back a little. I didn't expect him to reveal his best stuff, but he just did the impossible (11,000%+ one year ROE) the year before it was published. The second volume is much better and there's no loss of continuity if you read the second one without this one. 4 stars for 1988, but only 3 by today's standards.
