Wiley to Publish Conquer the Crash, 2nd Edition

New edition of New York Times bestseller by Robert Prechter on how to survive
and prosper in a deflationary depression

GAINESVILLE, Ga., Oct. 29 /PRNewswire/ --Wiley is publishing the second
edition of Robert Prechter's Conquer the Crash: You Can Survive and Prosper in
a Deflationary Depression (ISBN: 978-0-470-56797-5, $29.95). It will be
available in bookstores on November 9, 2009. The first edition became a New
York Times bestseller in 2002 with more than 100,000 people reading it in time
to protect their wealth before the sequential crashes in junk bonds, property,
stocks and commodities.

Prechter anticipated the current economic and financial situation in
surprising detail in the first edition of Conquer the Crash, forecasting
events such as these: the implosion of collateralized securities; bank
failures; Fannie Mae's stock collapse; and a rare, simultaneous fall in real
estate, stocks and commodities. Since then, the average U.S. homeowner has
suffered a decline of up to 40% in property value, Fannie Mae is a zombie
corporation under the government's protection, and stocks and commodities had
their biggest fall since 1929-1932.

The second edition adds 188 new pages of real-time commentary on markets and
the mounting prospects for deflation -- rather than inflation -- to become the
true threat to the U.S. economy. It includes all of the original edition, word
for word, which is as relevant as the day it first published. Prechter warns
that the doors to financial safety are closing all over the world. Within the
new section, he expands his recommended list of ways that prudent people can
protect their wealth and their livelihoods. It is all in a good cause, as
those who can keep their money safe during the deflationary depression will be
ready for the great buying opportunity that lies ahead after the crash.

For people who missed getting safe when the world was in party-hearty mode,
the timing for this new edition -- as once again economists and financial
authorities are announcing that all is well -- couldn't be more useful.
