“What is particularly unique and appealing about this book is Longo's skillful combination of the portfolio manager's and the investor's perspectives. Those perspectives represent two sides of the same coin, and this book will benefit anyone who is familiar with only one side of it … The title of the book suggests an ambitious agenda covering a broad set of topics, and this breadth is achieved. A rigid structure, stand-alone chapters, and numerous short sections within each chapter help the book live up to the promise of its title; it is, indeed, a ‘framework’.”

“Hedge Fund Alpha is an invaluable resource for both managers and investors in one of the most dynamic segments of the capital markets. It concludes with an astute listing of changes likely to sweep the hedge fund industry in the next few years. If they come to pass, Longo's highly readable volume may soon require a new edition, which could put the book on the path to becoming a permanent and indispensable feature of the hedge fund world.”
