Title: The Outlaw Bank : A Wild Ride into the Secret Heart of BCCI by Jonathan Beaty ISBN: 0-679-41384-7 Publisher: Random House Pub. Date: 06 April, 1993 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $25.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 4 (2 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: This book is the mother-lode
Comment: While most analyses of BCCI saw it as a banking scandal, Beaty and Gwynne correctly understood and colorfully present its true nature: as the deepest and most detailed glimpse anyone has so far had into the real workings of the underground economy. Their findings, which have never been challenged or refuted, have only grown more urgent with time. This book will not only tell you where Osama-types come from, it will tell you how and why they can thrive -- or not. That it was written before anyone knew who bin Laden was makes it all that more extraordinary.
Rating: 3
Summary: Average
Comment: Not a bad report of what took place although the topic could be a bit dry for the average reader. The dust jacket tries to make the book out to be a bit sexier then it really is. The authors do a good job or moving the story along but I did expect more from Beaty. I think what is interesting is some of the same move movement issues covered within the book are now coming to the forefront with the current crack down on terrorists. If you are interested in the topic of international banking then this book will be interesting.
