Nerds on Wall Street

:Math, Machines, and Wired Markets by David J. Leinweber

While reviewing books recently I ran across this one. (As a business librarian I have the pleasurable task of reviewing business books that make their way to the Bruno Business Library via our Approval Plan...but that's enough library talk...I don't want to put you to sleep!)

I later looked on Amazon and read some of the reviews and was further intrigued. It received some great reviews and appears to be an entertaining, yet educational, read.

You are probably aware that there has been a lot of talk lately regarding flash trading. My last post was about this topic.
