Years ago, Paul Newman took out an ad in the L.A. Times, apologizing for the film (and his performance in), "Paris Blues."The apology was most necessary and appropriate....Larry Spears and his publisher should do the same---not merely in the Times, but in every financial publication in America....I have started this book six times and have never gotten past page 20. The typographical errors are beyond counting.... Even students in a remedial Community College writing course could do better editing....Sadly, the title was exactly what I wanted. The book, however, is an insult to Financial Writing....
