Robert Slater's biography of George Soros, the Hungarian-born investor, follows him from his childhood in Nazi-occupied Budapest to London and Wall Street. It explains how his Quantum Fund became one of the most successful investment funds, describes his 1992 bet against the British pound and his theory of reflexivity, and looks at the philanthropy he directed toward Eastern Europe as communism collapsed.
