By his own account, Arader's career began while he was still a Yale University undergraduate. "There were thirty world-class rare book librarians, historians, curators of collections... I'm the only guy in history who used Yale as a Trade School ." p.54 Arader's map dealing business has turned an original capital investment of US$150,000 into a fortune of over $100 million. Miles Harvey credits him with transforming what had been an "insular realm of aficionados" p.55 , giving maps "unprecedented visibility, not only as investments... but as mass-media artifacts." p.55-56 Arader's ethics have, at times been called into question. Early in his career he engaged heavily in Bookbreaking , and in 1983 the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association Of America booted him out for what they deemed to be his negligent handling of another dealer's property. p.59 EXTERNAL LINK REFERENCES
