Prof. Navarro deftly bridges the academic and business communities, showing corporate leaders how to read economic tea-leaves to anticipate business cycles.

The current economic crisis clearly demonstrates why this book is so important to have on your bookshelf." ?Mark Zandi, Chief Economist and Cofounder of Moody?s Economy.com "Always a Winner is required reading for every entrepreneur, money manager, and independent investor hoping to outperform the market and retire one day." ?Mark T.
