For Love and Money: Reflections on the Essential Disciplines of Institutional Investment Management, Life and Happiness

This book deals with two subjects-investment and faith-that are inextricably linked. The idea that investment and faith are intimately related may not be immediately evident to the busy and passionate securities analyst or portfolio manager. It may seem anathema to the clergyman who reads 1 Timothy 6:10, "the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil" (NIV).

Ralph's need to understand the mysteries of money drove him into the investment business soon after his post-graduate studies. At the age of 40, restless to uncover more of the secrets of life he embarked on a journey of faith that proved foundational to his career, his family life and his personal growth as a human being.
