Title: Not as Good as Other Books on Deal Makers
Review: This is a mediocre biography and a poorly written book on deal making. While it does shed some light on the character of Carl Icahn, it does a lousy job of describing and analysing the deals involved. The author, from time to time, mentions how many shares of a target company Icahn had acquired but never tell the readers how many percentage of interest in a company those shares represent. Or, the author tell you Icahn made several millions in a particular deal, but never points out how much Icahn has invested in the first place. This makes it very hard for the readers to follow the deal and to see how great Ichan is at doing deals.If readers are interested in deal making, I highly recommend "The Vulture Investors" by Rosenberg. Actually, for those who are interested in Icahn's life, reading a few chapters from "The Vulture Investor" and "Predator's Ball" is even better than reading the whole of this book.
