Against the Rules with Michael Lewis

CHAPTER

Risk, Reputation, and Reality

This chapter investigates the mindsets behind high-risk decision-making, particularly in trading contexts, and contrasts them with personal, solitary choices. It also delves into the courtroom dynamics surrounding the trial of Sam, exploring media portrayals, personal eccentricities, and the dichotomy between public image and private life. Through vivid descriptions of living conditions and personal habits, the chapter raises questions about authenticity, empathy, and self-awareness.
