Title: Women of The Street
Description: "Why would an investor care whether you wear Louboutins or loafers when managing their money? It has been proven that women invest differently than men. Collectively, their approach has proven profitable and reliable, and it outperforms the industry at large. Deploying and more widely disseminating some of the techniques that women instinctively use can be beneficial to investors, male and female. This book celebrates the steady and consistent execution of an investment strategy that results in long-term out-performance. The portfolio managers interviewed (Leah Zell, Thyra Zerhusen, Fran Tuite, and more) exemplify the best traits that women investors tend to exhibit. Their example will help urge the next generation of women portfolio managers forward, and their wisdom can inform your investment decisions, no matter what your gender. After reading this book, the author hopes you learn from them and start investing a little more like a girl."--

Yet this book was written for women and men. The interviews in Women of the Street are not about being a top female portfolio manager; they are about how successful portfolio managers have managed money over the long term. Their wisdom can inform your investment decisions, no matter what your gender"--
