Founder of the investment firm of Neuberger and Berman, an originator of no-load mutual funds and active on Wall Street since 1929, Neuberger, at age 94, has written both a memoir and an investment guide. Much of his book revolves around his love of art collecting, the reason he says he went to work on The Street. He assisted contemporary artists by buying their works and, in later years, aided many museums, notably the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Neuberger Museum of Art in Purchase, New York. On investing, he lays down ten basic principles and says most of his success has come from doing the opposite of other investors. He also reflects on charity, politics, and aging. Unfortunately, he fails to provide enough background for the reader to understand him or his work thoroughly; the investment advice is useful but too brief. Though written for a general audience, his book is recommended only for collections comprehensive in business or art collecting.?Lawrence Maxted, Gannon Univ., Erie, Pa.
