To those who don't speak it, the language of money can seem impenetrable. Fortunately, John Lanchester-the best-selling novelist and reporter hailed by The Economist for "e;explain[ing] complex stuff in a down-to-earth and witty style"e;-is here to bridge the gap between the money people and the rest of us. With wit and candor, Lanchester explains more than 300 common words and phrases from "e;AAA rating"e; and "e;amortization"e; to "e;yield curve"e; and "e;zombie bank."e;
