Sign of the Times: Rubenstein’s Book Suspended Indefinitely
Come this time next year, bookshelves will be stocked with tales of Wall Street woe, as publishing houses have been gobbling up proposals from Gasparino, Lowenstein, McLean, Nocera, Sorkin, etc. While we anxiously await more information on what Jimmy Cayne stuffs in his pipe, let’s take a moment to eulogize at least one book for which the economic collapse is a burden rather than a boon: “Beyond Wall Street: Inside The Rise Of Private Equity And The Future Of Investing,” by David Rubenstein, co-founder of The Carlyle Group. peHUB first discovered the book on Amazon back in May 2007, at which point a HarperCollins rep told us that the release date had been pushed back from August 2007 to early 2008. So we pre-ordered one, and waited. And waited. And waited.
