“Red-Blooded Risk: The Secret History of Wall Street” by Aaron Brown

Red-blooded risk

A cool personal account of quantitative trading in the US. Awfully written, mainly because it doesn’t feel properly planned – there are a lot of I-also-wanted-to-add moments, side notes, non sequiturs, and repetitions. But, at times, it’s exhaustingly gripping (it didn’t last me more than a day). The thesis of the book is contained entirely in the accompanying comics. (Many thanks to Hiddi for the recommendation)
