Publisher's Summary

In My Life as a Quant, Emanuel Derman relives his exciting journey as one of the first high-energy particle physicists to migrate to Wall Street. Derman details his adventures in this field - analyzing the incompatible personas of traders and quants, and discussing the dissimilar nature of knowledge in physics and finance. Throughout this tale, he also reflects on the appropriate way to apply the refined methods of physics to the hurly-burly world of markets.

Profile Image for Mike

it's really dry

I'm not a fan of the voice used. it's almost swinging, there isn't really any useful educational information. it really is just a life story.
I'm only going to finish it because I have OCD. but I wouldn't recommend.
