In the beginning was Josh Levine, an idealistic programming genius who dreamed of wresting control of the market from the big exchanges that, again and again, gave the giant institutions an advantage over the little guy. Levine created a computerized trading hub named "Island" where small traders swapped stocks, and over time his invention morphed into a global electronic stock market that sent trillions in capital through a vast jungle of fiber-optic cables.

Roger Lowenstein, the bestselling author of Buffett, captures Long-Term's roller-coaster ride in gripping detail. Drawing on confidential internal memos and interviews with dozens of key players, Lowenstein crafts a story that reads like a first-rate thriller from beginning to end. He explains not just how the fund made and lost its money, but what it was about the personalities of Long-Term's partners, the arrogance of their mathematical certainties, and the late-nineties culture of Wall Street that made it all possible.

Description
In March 2006, the world’s richest men sipped champagne in an opulent New York hotel. They were preparing to compete in a poker tournament with million-dollar stakes. At the card table that night was Peter Muller, who managed a fabulously successful hedge fund called PDT. With him was Ken Griffin, who was the tough-as-nails head of Citadel Investment Group. There, too, were Cliff Asness, the sharp-tongued, mercurial founder of the hedge fund AQR Capital Management, and Boaz Weinstein, chess “life master” and king of the credit-default swap.
Muller, Griffin, Asness, and Weinstein were among the best and brightest of a new breed, the quants. Over the past 20 years, this species of math whiz had usurped the testosterone-fueled, kill-or-be-killed risk takers who’d long been the alpha males of the world’s largest casino. The quants believed that a cocktail of differential calculus, quantum physics, and advanced geometry held the key to reaping riches from the financial markets. And they helped create a digitized money-trading machine that could shift billions around the globe with the click of a mouse. Few realized that night, though, that in creating this extraordinary system, men like Muller, Griffin, Asness, and Weinstein had sown the seeds for history’s greatest financial disaster.

Maybe my favorite finance book ever
Correction, favorite book ever. The story, players, facts and narration are amazing it’s even better the second time though.
Second correction - I have to renege on above, Robert A. Caro's "The Power Broker" is now my favorite book of all time.

wonderful.
Still listening and have numerous hours remaining, but i just wanted to share my opinion. I enjoyed this book immensely and can summarize it in one word ... diversification. It is truly remarkable how arrogance and greed can cloud the innate discerning nature of even the most experienced and wisest investors. Even though the book is about a handful of young inexperienced bookworms but what i find fascinating is that these guys were actually instrumental in crippling the global financial pendulum.... not sure why not enough experienced investors did not see that the trading in credit swaps used to support subprime mortgage assets were in fact a ticking time bomb .... over a decade later i'm sure that there is very little appetite for 20ish year old chicks selling their innovative and non conventional quant based speculations .... Thank the lord for BH.
