Portfolio Theory and Investment Management

Since the first edition of this book was published, significant developments have modified the general view of the efficient market hypothesis. This fully revised second edition provides a major contribution to the study of these developments. The authors provide a concise summary of modern portfolio theory covering such issues as: * The mean-variance approach to portfolio management. * The capital asset pricing model. * The efficient market hypothesis and option pricing theories. * Risk measurement services. Combining theory and practice, this is an ideal introductory text for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as a useful reference for investment managers.

John Fielding

"This article is about the London magistrate. For the soldier, see John Williams (VC)."

ed in a navy accident at the age of 19, John set up his own business and, in his spare time, studied law with Henry.

Appointed Henry's personal assistant in 1750, John helped him to root out corruption and improve the competence of those engaged in administering justice in London. They formed the first professional police force, the Bow Street Runners. Through the regular circulation of a 'police gazette' containing descriptions of known criminals, Fielding also established the basis for the first police criminal records department.

When Henry died in 1754, John was appointed magistrate at Bow Street in his place, becoming renowned as the "Blind Beak", and allegedly being able to recognise 3000 criminals by the sounds of their voices. He also continued to develop his ideas on crime prevention and youth employment. He was knighted in 1761.
