The Lucky Bugger’s Casebook
In a wonderfully witty style, this casebook gives us the stories of inventors, Nobel Prize winners, scientists, actresses, engineers, architects, kings, tennis champions, criminals, opera singers and many more besides who have benefited from sheer blind luck. From the Japanese trader who made a fortune after a share price typo to the art book bought for £50 that turned out to contain original Picassos, this is a celebration of serendipity and outrageous good fortune.
