Dr. Chhabra has lectured at Yale University, Carnegie Mellon University, Columbia Business School, Baruch College CUNY, and the University of Chicago.

Chhabra (chief investment officer, Merrill Lynch Wealth Management, Bank of America) redefines personal investing from trying to beat the market to focusing first on personal objectives and then tailoring investments to fit.

Within it, Chhabra divides objectives and investments into three categories: Safety (funds to meet emergencies and assets such as a home to live in), Market (investments to keep up with the market and inflation), and Aspirational (higher risk investments that could have huge returns). Prior to that, he was head of quantitative research at J.P.

Morgan Private Bank. VERDICT Chhabra's clear, concise work will resonate with more affluent readers who want to better understand the management of their assets.—Lawrence Maxted, Gannon Univ. 48th & 49th Sts., McGraw Hill Bldg.), New York, NY
